UGH!!!! I seriously want to scream! I have been driving her for 2 wks now with no problems. No check engine light, no stuttering, nothing! Then today out of the blue on the way home from work I stopped at a light and she was idling weird again, not as bad as before but I was worried that the problem was rearing it's ugly head again... and it was! On the way home she began sputtering and stalled once. I made it home, but now I have NO IDEA what is causing this continued problem.
The coil packs and spark plugs are new and replaced
The PCV valve gasket was replaced
What we thought was the "K-wire" was cut (the wire on the stock stereo harness that I've read can cause this issue)....
Now I'm thinking of trying to drive around without the stereo in at all and see what that does....
But can all of this be due to the after market stereo really?!?! I know people have changed out their stereo in their beetle's before.... has ANY ONE had this issue?!?!
Feeling beyond frustrated about this!!!
