Hi I have a 1994 2.0e Cabriolet. I have just had it serviced to cure this problem and it still happens. It then went back and had all 3 temperature sensors changed and the haul sensor replaced in the distributor.
I can be driving along and it will start to missfire or just cut out. I can then restart and carry on but it happens every 4 or 5 miles. It has been plugged into VAGCom but is not showing any faults.
Another thing it does is when the oil filler cap is removed the engine surges untill the cap is replaced is this normal for this engine.
I am so anoyed with it.
I would like to cure these problems soon as the engine is being removed to be replaced with a modified 2.3 bored to 2.5 20Valve engine on the week starting the 18th of this month. I want to know the engine I am selling is full working order.
Please Help
