'03 TDI, 140K miles, 5-speed
Just started in the last 2K miles. Engine experiences a brief hiccup at 2,000 RPM in 5th (less obvious in 4th) gear. Does not occur (or is not noticeable) in gears 1-3. More pronounced when accelerating up a long gradual incline. Once past the 1,900 to 2,100 RPM zone, there is absolutely no hiccup all the way up to top end. Some other details:
new fuel filter
almost new air filter
no check engine light
otherwise engine starts fine and has normal power
Any suggestions on where to focus would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.
