    Hi everyone my mk3 gti
    has started cutting out at junctions/traffic lights ect.
    seams to happen more when cold and only started last nite

    yeasterdat i repaired the hose from the maf to tb as it was split near the throttle body
    wiped the crap out of the front part of the thottle body up to the flap
    put every thing back toghter and also put the rocker breather hose on properly
    and now it keeps cutting out if you put the clutch down to quickly

    some times the revs just drop to about 400rpm then bounce back up to about 850/900rpm
    Other times it drops and cutts out

    Please Help AS its doing my nut in as its my daily driver

    Also got a fault code of 00537 lamdba sensor control
    the car had that when i got it but wiped it and all ok

    but now i wipe it and its back every time but the lamdba sensor is only about 2month old

    Going to check all wiring when it cools down & check all hoses too
