    Hi There

    I've just bought a 1999 1.8T mark 4 AGU engine, and its started to mis-behave. It was running fine until yesterday. you will lightly presh the accelerator and it seems to splutter / mis, its doing it in all gears, but only if you pull away lightly, if you floor it it's OK.

    Its also started stalling as you run to a stop!!

    Help, as I've just parted with my cash and want the car to be running fine.

    Any suggestions to what it might be and possibel fixes woudl be great!

    Cheers for now

    Will
