Hi, I have a 1998 VW Jetta TDI. I've had the car for about 10 years and I give it regular maintenance. Now has about 310,000 miles on it. A couple of months ago, I was cruising down the freeway and suddenly had a loss of power that almost felt like a miss. Glow plug light illuminated momentarily. Car recovered on its own with no codes thrown. It happened so fast that if I had blinked, I would have missed it. I felt it though. Since then, its has done it intermittently a handful of times. The only constant parameter is cruising at higher speeds. So far, I've checked for IP chaffed wires and codes but that's about it. With this car, usually when something start happening like this, it's a sign that something's about go out. But what? All ideas welcome!
