I have a 96 2.0 Golf. NonUS model. Digifant fuel inyection. Yes, Digifant..
It has a driveability problem I will try to describe:
-starts perfectly, first try every time.
-idles perfectly.
-no smoke of any kind.
-very good mileage.
-Bucks violently if I depress the gas pedal too fast. Otherwise, ok.
-Seems to have a large lag on the gas pedal. I press it, count 1 seconda, engine responds...
-When shifting, drops to idle waaaaay too fast and makes smooth shifting very difficult. Shifting becomes a juggle consisting of raising RPMS back to 1500 before releasing clutch. Too fast, it bucks, too slow RPMS not up far enough and it almost stalls.
-has about 80% of the power it should. more power cold than hot.
Any ideas? Everything checks fine, no DTC...
