Hello I just bought an automatic 99 passat not to long ago and it seems to have some issues with the throttle bouncing up and down when I press a little past quarter throttle, theres no rpm reading , and very little power in drive. Here are some pics on the code it gave me and what the car looks...

Greetings everyone, Last week I was driving home from work, got off the freeway, and was sitting in traffic at a red light. The engine idle dipped to a near stall for just a moment, and then recovered. Car drove normally for a bit... And then had a pretty hard hesitation while going around a...

Hi, I have a 98 AEB K04 passat. I am having a hard time figuring out why my boost flutters. It will do it only under load when the rpms are lower (It won't do it when you are accelerating quicky and rpms are high-- most likely cause the wastegate is fully closed when under hard acceleration)...

Hi, I have a 98 AEB KO4 turbo, giac tuned (5bar fpr) car. The car pulls well, however, I noticed that sometimes the boost will flutter. It seems to only do it when I mash the gas pedal and I am in the wrong gear. As an example, say I was in 3rd gear going 30miles per hour then step on the peddle...

Car started idling a bit odd today and sometimes randomly shutting off, whole crankcase system is new and I rechecked it its all good, no vacuum hissing, its an AEB so no SAIP, intake is fine, ICM is good, MAF is UNplugged due to failure but I hadnt had this problem before with it unplugged...

So i just relocated my forge splitter valve and it was fluttering slightly before then because it wasn't perfectly adjusted for the boost, but after I relocated it, i thought i adjusted it properly except now it seems like the splitter is blowing off fine and the fluttering sounds as if it is...

So again I'm a newb, I've had the 2001 B5.5 for about a week now and its the 2.8 V6. Here's my question you can hear from the engine a moderate flutter sound. this is my first VW so i know nothing about the engines, is this the way this engine should sound? I can't explain it any better...

i have a slight flutter feeling in the pedal and whole car really. just replaced the motor mount on drivers side and replaced all the axles early this year and none of those seem to be the problem. what else to check?

I've been noticing that when I start my car and shift into drive or reverse, I hear a high pitched fluttering noise. It will stick around for a little bit, and you can hear it as the RPMs rise when I drive off, and then it usually disappears, but I've been noticing that it happens almost every...

Does anyone else get a loud fluttering, helicopter-like sound with the moonroof open (slid back) above 30 miles per hour? Can anything be done about it? My headliner was recently replaced by the dealer due to a leak.

does any1 know how to make the fluttering noise instead of the whooshing sound? the whoosh sound isnt even loud only can hear it good if there isnt much noise around, or is it just that i have a smaller pod filter. on the jap cars, if you block off the stock bov it will give you tututu from the...

Like the title reads. I just installed EVOMs CAI and now I hear a fluttering noise every time I back off of the throttle. Mind you I have a GFB Hybrid BOV installed. Is this common with the Intake or with the BOV. I'm looking to go back to a DV anyway B/C my car jerks at aroung 15psi anyway. The...

I've got a 2002 b5.5 1.8T 5M that I bought almost a month ago. It was a VW Certified pre-owned (w/ 36k miles). When I bought it, the front tires were new, (but not the OEM Contis) and the rear tires were the original OEM Contis. I noticed some steering wheel wobble, and discovered one of the...

Hey guys, when I started my car this morning as per normal it started fine but the revs went up to 1400 then down to 1200 then up to 1400 about 3 times over the course of about 3-5 seconds. It then settled down to 1050ish for the fast idle and then a minute later to 800 for normal idle. It only...
