Problem with my car SolvedSolved

Volkswagen Jetta 2001  120000 miles
I own a standard Jetta 1.8T 2001 and, after perfectly starting the car and changing from first to second gear, EPC and ASR indicators turn on. I stop the car and it is not stable enough, revolutions go up and down. I then turn off the car, start it again and the same problem appears. Occasionally, after a while of driving and braking, the car stalls. Filters and spark plugs have been checked, injectors cleaned but everything is still the same. Could you please help me? It is really worrying and even dangerous. Thank you.

In case someone has my same problem, this was the solution to my problem: acceleration body cleanse, coils harness replacement and engine relay change (N° 428), which is located behind the MAF sensor, right next to the fire wall. Hope it helps someone.

Temperature icon SolvedSolved

Volkswagen Jetta 2004  170000 miles
Hi everyone, this is what happened to me: on Tuesday, the engine was cleaned. On Wednesday, it worked properly. On Thursday, the temperature's icon on the dashboard turned on and, when I opened the hood, I noticed that the antifreeze compartment was not closed correctly and the liquid was coming out of it. That same day I filled the compartment with its corresponding antifreeze, left the car on for a while and the icon turned off. On Friday, the temperature's icon turned on again but, when I checked the antifreeze level, it was between the accepted limits. The car has not overheated lately, the water pump is a year old and the fans are working properly. How can I remove the icon? Or what is it that is failing?

Usually the icon turns on when there is a liquid deficit. In other cases it has to do with the engine still being cold because you have just started the car. The normal thing is that the needle which measures the temperature is right in the middle. If it is above that, it is a problem. Hope this helps.

I had the same problem with my Jeta and the cause was that the terminals that go behind the fuse panel were sulphated, so I cleaned them and it is now working properly. There are two connectors, a yellow and a white one. Hope my comment helps you.

Stalls when driving, EPC and oil indicators

Volkswagen Jetta 2002  168000 miles
I have a Jetta A 4 2002 and, when driving, it suddenly jerks, EPC and oil indicators turn on and it loses power until it stalls. I try to speed it up but it won't answer properly. Only after 20-30 minutes the engine will start again. The car has been tuned, the battery, oil pump and air sensor changed but it keeps doing the same thing. Can anyone help me? It really worries me when I'm driving and it suddenly stalls.

Check the electronic acceleration body, that is what the indicators mean.
