Hi,
I hope you’re all well and apologies if this topic has already been covered.
My 2014 VRS diesel (CUPA engine) is suffering a problem where the power suddenly drops off and the revs also drop to idle. After just a moment it will pick up again slowly.
It’s an auto (DSG box) and the sensation when it happens is pretty violent. The clutch pack was replaced last year and there are no noises or problems selecting any gear.
The issue happens mostly when pulling away or accelerating hard but can also be when you’re just cruising along at any speed (although this has been pretty rare).
No warning lights have appeared nor any faults stored. I have had the fuel filter changed but unfortunately this hasn’t made any difference. I have read elsewhere that it might be the fuel pump relay which I will also try but just wanted to find out if anyone else has had this issue and what the fix was?
All the best,
Joe
