    Hi, so I've had my 1995 Golf VR6 for about 3 months now and am largely pleased with it. Bought it quite cheap so don't mind having done the following on it so far: Radiator (holed) Thermostat, temp sense and sender (engine was running cold) Ignition switch (wouldn't start consistently) Plugs and Coil Pack (trying to solve stuttering issue) No ECU falut codes reported since changing temp sensor/sender So, more on this stuttering. Car runs great above 2000rpm, never any issues. Between 600 and 2000 though, if you try to accelerate, the engine will sometimes briefly stutter and then pick up again

When it tries to stall I can't prevent it from doing so by blipping the throttle, makes no difference at all. If there is a trick at all, it seems to be to blip the throttle a fraction of a second after it stalls (while the fly wheel is still truning the engine over). Even that might just be my imagination though. Never cuts out when running but might miss/hesitate everynow and then (very rare though, like I've noticed it

    Hi, I've just bought a fairly tidy '95 Golf VR6 which is mainly sound but has one odd starting problem that didn't occur in the first week I had it but now occurs all the time. When starting the car at any temperature, the engine fires up nicely, runs at the right RPM and then, after a second or so, stalls. After a few attempts (between 2 and 20) it will generally catch itself as it stalls and manages to recover (followed by 5 secs or so of high rpm tickover). If the car is hot, it still tries to stall but seems to be better at recovering (manily starts in a 1 or 2 attempts). I've replaced the
