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,

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

          Help

          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!
