On the way home on the highway tonight, my JSW motor felt like it cut out for a couple of seconds, came back on, then cut out completely. Glow plug and workshop lights came on. I coasted over to the shoulder and found that the motor was bucking, like a carbureted car that's running out of gas. I chugged down the shoulder for a couple of hundred feet and then it suddenly smoothed out and I was able to drive home normally. I ran a VCDS scan and found the results below.
My question is: the voltage shows 10.64V - shouldn't it be the normal operating voltage of around 13 or whatever? And it if is indeed low, is it likely that problem is caused by low voltage, and that the throttle control valve module signal that the code implicates is really a symptom rather than the cause?
