I have a stock Jetta 2001 with an 01M Auto. This only happens in 1st gear, the power dies off after 4,000 rpm. I have bought a new MAF and didnt help out. I have also changed the fuel filter. Is this a safety feature so that the tranny will last longer? My buddies stock 2002 Jetta with 01M auto doesnt have this problem. Any ideas? Its not a big deal i guess since it only does it in 1st gear and im thinking it will prolong the life of the 01M.
EDIT: I forgot to mention that the intake manifold and intercooler was cleaned very well but did not solve the problem.
EDIT 2: I just noticed that it also does it in 2nd gear but not as much compared to 1st gear.
