Hi All,
This is my first post to this sight but I have been "lurking/using" the information on the sight for years.
Anyways, I have a 2001 Beetle Sport with a 1.8T (AWV) and have been having an intermittent issue with a short term, sudden loss of power while driving.
I have had a GIAC chip in the car since 2003, and got a P0420 code about 5 months ago. I put a spacer on sensor 2 and the code went away but I am currently waiting for a new Downpipe with Cat to come this week.
The car still drives great with good power. I have just had this issue, and about 3 weeks ago the car stalled completely while I was driving from work to home. After a few minutes, I was able to start the car again and drive home. Since then, the car will occasionally lose power for a moment and the EPC and CEL lights come on for a second and then go out. After which the car drives fine.
I am at a bit of an impasse as where to start with this issue I have got into the engine bay and wiggled almost all of the wires at the connectors to see if there was any obvious problem, but have not been able to recreate the issue.
I will be working on the car this weekend and would appreciate any advise or guidance on the best approach to track this down.
Thanks,
Gary
