VR6 "cutting out" at 3500rpm on full throttle

[Golf Loon]

Yup swop it with a Mates one for a test and carefully examine your one for cracks while it out.

Mine has hard goo on it = SUPERIOR... i dont think runamuk's does.

I'm no mechanic tho, so i'll take that 5 min and make it 40.

Help

Anyone ever had a similar issue? Someone mentioned there is some "anti-flog" thing that wont let you hurt you car when cold... but this is something else.

Even when the car has been running for over 30 mins, the issue still occurs sometimes.

If I slowly creep up the RPM, it's ok, but if I hit full throttle, it will cut out just when the car usually gets its power. If I hold my foot on the accelerator, the engine wont be running at all, and when I release my foot, the engine kicks back in.

Any ideas?

Please tell me that you were able to find a fix for this!? I just got a 2007 Passat wagon with the 3.6 and I am having the same issue. I just replaced the high Pressure fuel Pump and I am going to try the low side because I thought it was a fuel issue. Any insight would be very much appreciated!
