clutch problem has vanished, it must be the warm weather!

Hi all, I had been having trouble with my car for a few years now (2.0 tsi) , and its taken away all the enjoyment of owning the car. The problem was a missfire\ stutter (especially when cold) at low RPM (1000 - 3000 rpm) I had tried to find a solution for the problem before and fitted new spark plu...

Hi Danny, My cold start is very minor so I haven't done anything about it. I checked everything with VAGCOM and it all seems fine.

I'm still concerned about the cold start problem though. Would a diagnostics show up this type of problem?

Hi, I've had a Scirocco GT 2.0 tsi for 6 months now but I'm struggling to enjoy the car due to some annoying problems I have a 2 year AA warranty but I need to know if I'm covered for these problems so I was wondering if someone can help me. The first problem is an annoying squeal when pulling away ...
