Hi all,
I've owned my 2002 golf tdi for about 4 months now and absolutely love it.
However, recently it has started to give me an issue. It accelerates as quickly as it did when I bought it up until about 45 mph. Between 45-55 mph it really struggles to accelerate, I think it might be the vehicle not properly shifting into 3rd? gear. It is an automatic.
After this occurs, and if I come to a stop after this, it struggles to accelerate half as quickly as normal between 0 - 55 mph.
I've noted that this problem can be solved if I turn the vehicle off for a brief moment and then on again, it seems to go back to normal after I do this.
I honestly know nothing about cars, and am sure I will learn a lot as I continue to post around here.
If I have left out any vital information, please let me know.
Thanks a lot everyone.
