hi guys, my car has developed a jerky jolting motion when driving at 15 mph or less it doesnt always happen just comes and goes! this usually goes away if i put my foot down a bit.
ive also noticed that ive got an irratic idle aswell.....

can anybody shed any light on this problem??
car is a 2.0 tdi

Mileage?

 

[sean3794]

its 86,100 or so?? any ideas been told possible that its injectors but ive no knowledge with engines

I suspect its a 140 tdi bkd, could be variety of things, has it had fuel filter changed yet, maf, air filter, service for 1 aswell, cambelt, so many things to check, I would certainly get a scan done to see if its thrown any errors up.

Mine too does an irratic iidle, not too concerned

thanks nhn, think youre on a winner with maf engine light came on today!!!! booked in for a service!!!!

Before you jump on that, get it scanned by someone with vcds aka vagcom, as a service may not cure the issue, I'd be happy to take a look, could even service it aswell tbh
