    Okay- my daughter isn't shuddering and sputtering, her TSI is. It seem to happen irregularly. She took it to the dealership which told her she should run premium gas in it and charged her $300 for a fuel injector cleaning (and $50 to put in a half quart of oil). Problem was gone for a couple...

    We have a 2006 Passat 2.0t with 120,000 miles. A couple of months ago codes P0300 and P0302 popped up. This happens on initial startup for the day. Not all days, it can go up to 3 to 4 days before it does it again. It is always logged between 30 and 40 seconds after startup and you can feel a...

    Hi, I was idling when my '99 passat 1.8T started shaking and the CEL was flashing. I was able to limp it a quarter mile home, but it was very weak and when I got out of the car, there was a strong burning smell. I have checked the engine codes and they were: Address 01: Engine Labels...

    Three days ago 5 minutes after leaving the house on the way to work the engine stumbled for a few seconds and the CEL started flashing. Then the engine backfired and everything returned to normal. The light stopped flashing and the engine was smooth again. I drove home with no problems and used...

    When I start my 2005 1.8T AWM engine from cold, about half the time there is a clear missfire with a flashing check engine which ultimately results in a P0302 code. The engine runs fine though after this first ~5 seconds. No loss in gas mileage or any other strange after effects. I researched...

Replaced one vacuum hose and looking into the others. Have a question. Does anyone have a OBDII scanner that can read the long term fuel trim...
