Hello everyone, I've got a problem with my golf v 2008 gt sport TDI 83000 km where there is an intermittent flat spot on acceleration also while driving down the highway at 100th in 5th gear when I accelerated you feel the turbo spool up but it wouldn't accelerate fully and feel like it's some how restricted the second problem occasionally it idles rough again intermittently. I read the post on removing the intake manifold to clean the sludge from the egr valve and manifold which I have done thanks.

Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before.
We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,
