Hi, I’m new to the group and looking for some help with a 2001 Passat 4motion 2.8 auto wagon with 135k I picked up for my daughter. It developed what I have seen others explain as a surge. Driving under 2,000 rpm it starts to fluctuate 50-100 rpm with a steady throttle. When this starts, it also...

I've recently been experiencing surging of about 100 rpms ONLY when under light acceleration between 1200 and 1800 rpm. Car accelerates from a stop fine, accelerates fine above 2000 rpm, and cruises fine at speed where rpms are above 2000. As others have experienced, this only happens once the...

New to this site, but having an issue that I really need help with My Passat has 88K miles. The symptom is that when cold, the engine idles a little high for about a minute, as designed, then goes to normal idle for a minute or two, then starts to surge for a few minutes, or until the engine...

My normally reliable '96 A4 has me a little concerned since last Friday. I know this is an Audi-forum topic, but the drive trains are basically identical to the Passat and there tends to be more activity at PassatWorld. Anyway, after a fill up (A clue? Don't know) and on the freeway, it began...

Alright my friends, got my intake manifold out the way. Wanted to open this post for questions I might have. Right now the goal is to get to every single thing that needs replacing/upgrade. So far the hoses to the pcv valve are on the list. Whats this about the "eurojet"? If theirs anything else...

help a Passat Newbie! I've searched and can't find the answer to my particular issue. I suspect it's more than one: FWIW it's a high mileage 284k km Drive by Wire 5.5 tiptronic wagon. From cold start the idle often surges from about 800-2k for about the first 15 secs. Then it lowers to about a...

Hoping someone can help. After driving for a while and slowing down or stopping, engine will idle and or run at around 2k rpm for out to a minute before dropping back to normal rpm for a couple of seconds before returning to 2k rpm. this can go on for some time. If i stop the engine for five +...

Hello passatworld, The problem I am having is a bit strange. The car appears to want to shut down when driving it or at idle at times. What happens is car tries to shut down like it doesn't have any voltage or something, cel blinks during and the 173 relay toggles out of control. What I'm...

Hey all. I have a 99 passat 1.8t I just recently bought it and hav already done quite a bit to it. ( coils, plugs, cat, ignition module) my problem is that when I am driving, it surges alot and if I hammer the gas, it bogs down until I let off… .it sounds like its boosting normal but I can't...

Yet another 2.8 V6 RPM surging,stuttering,shuddering,fluctuating,bouncing ,jump thread So I recently replaced my timing belt, rollers, tensioner, water pump, thermostat, CCT seals with valve cover gaskets, and PCV system clean including removing the intake manifold and cleaning out the oil...

I just replaced my seized ko3 with a ko4 as a first step to what I'm sure will be a long line of modifications to my 01'. First thing I noticed was the intermittent boosting I was experiencing. If I eased into the throttle it will be fine until I hit about 2500-3000 rpms then it start bucking...

Hello all, This is my first post so lets see how it goes. I have read a few related posts but no concrete answer seems to have been given. The issue is with my 2003 Passat B5.5 with the 2.8L V6, automatic. She has 130,000 miles and looks and runs excellent until recently. Under light and steady...

This has been an ongoing issue, but I have ignored it up until now because it seems to be getting worse. I have a 2000 Passat 1.8t and whenever I come to a complete stop, the car seems to surge and idle roughly. Before it was only minor and would actually stop after a bit, now it does it all...

So I have had my passat since may of 2012. I love it. Its got just over 80k miles on it and drives wonderfully..... except when I take off. I know this has been covered within the forums before, but im not sure if Ive seen an actual solution. So the problem is when I put it in drive from park or...
