VW golf 1.9 tdi 2005 "Shuddering"

terry0 · 2015-06-25 00:02:10

Any suggestions what the cause of this is ? Shuddering intermittently and losing considerable power. have to drive at 40~50 mph when this happens. this (shuddering) then seems to self-correct but will not drive at more than 55 mph. Mechanic changed rear left caliper but ...no joy. any help appreciated. Thanks

Shuddering and losing power could be an injector.sounds like it's not getting fuel and miss firing as a result.

What about air hose going into the turbo? Could the turbo be losing power?
