Hey everyone first time tdi owner recently acquired a new to me 2001 tdi alh jetta the car has 306000km on it searched a bunch of forums and cant find one with the exact same symptoms. Sometimes while driving the engine will just all of a sudden drop rpms (the whole car will jerk) for a split second than kick back in doesnt matter what gear I'm in or if I'm going up or down hill. Could be fine and not do it for a week than do it 2 - 3 times within 100km. No check engine light has came on I have replaced fuel filter (was happening prior to this) and noticed alot of air bubbles from fuel filter to pump, not sure if this is normal or not.
As well while driving between 2000 and 3000rpm and you step on it you can feel the motor shaking. More noticeable in 4th and 5th gear. I know it's not tires cause it did it with my old tires and still does it with my new tires as well as dont feel it in steering wheel at all. Read some forums and leaning towards possibly engine mounts? Any help would be appreciated thanks!
