I'm on my second (and lesser) TDI. This one is a manual 2006 Jetta. It's got 96k and it's got these two nagging issues. Sometimes it feels like it might be slipping or hesitating going into second gear. It is intermittent. With this few miles, I can't imagine it's having transmission issues. Oh, and clutch replacement by previous owner... possibly a recall thing. Any ideas?
On a possibly separate note, occasionally when I am cruising in 5th at 60-65 mph (common commute speed in the SW) I will feel a slight hiccup.
I haven't been able to nail down any specific weather, engine temperature, fuel, factors on either of these issues. I had the fuel filter changed in April with my 85k TB/pump replacement and was hoping that would solve it. Alas, it's back and very intermittent.
The second gear issue happens more often. Once, about every other time I drive it. I have the OBD II for it. I just don't know if it can help diagnose this issue.
Any help is appreciated!
