Ah ok how much would one of them cost ?

Took a guy out for a look see and car did this problem again a few times , I had to feather the throttle to make it pick up. On boost it seems fine. But everytime it happens I have to feather pedal. Are there any sensors at the pedal ?

Car now for sale

Cheers dean , we've decided it's time to sell up and get another car

I did have a bulb out and think it was the brake light , but that was changed and had been fine . Can have a look at the lights again and see if there's any bulbs out or flickering Either way wifes said time for another car so this one's going 😔

Dean pump cost £54 , filter cost £6.75, and throttle body cost £78 . Not breaking the bank but with labour it put price up to £282

Done that and he still can't find out why its doing what it's doing

What about sensors?

Does the potentiometer on the throttlebody come with it ? Having to keep stabbing accelerator peddle just to keep it moving . Car doesn't stall when tryin to drive . Has to be fuel or injectors but I ain't a mechanic

Could it also be the injectors ? If cleaned / replaced do they need to be programed like certain other brands ? If I can't fix it then cars for sale , another £282 spent on fuel pump, throttle body / swirlpot and fuel filter plus labour

Now does in a straight line , pulled away from garage and was stuttering . Could it be injectors or coil packs breaking down ?

New swirlpot and throttle body and now doing it in a straight line a little but apparently clear on the bends. Guy seems to think it's fuel now as pump , filter , swirlpot and throttle body all changed

Cars done 150,000 and was going strong . Only things left to check are fpr, and fuel tank / fuel , ( fuel filter and injectors but these wouldn't cause car to lose power on a right hand bend )

No lights come on and I've already had the sump pick up pipe cleaned although it was a few years ago And I've only done 32,000 miles in 9years since owning car

Normal throttle on right hand band . I've had to stab the peddle to get a response. Mechanic has changed pump and problem still there , I suggested the swirl pot and he said he could check it .

Yeah think it's the pump , in a straight line I've got power, soon as I hit a right hander I have no power And have to hit the accelerator to the floor to get going. Might have to sell the auld girl to an enthusiast

Gave it a wee bit of stick , Acceleration seems fine but when I hit a right hand bend it lost power and just as I was 100yrds from house I had to turn right it lost power again . No warning lights came on . Any ideas

Will find out soon enough but never had a problem with it till now and have been using it for years. Cars serviced last August so am stumped unless I've got a loose connection also

Think I've got a fuel, fuel pump or fuel filter issue as 2 days now I've had a brief loss or lack of power for a couple of seconds . I've taken it for a blast and was fine ish until I turned of main road where it did it again. Anybody got any ideas ? No lights on or come on when it happens . It's only happened since I've put more morrisons fuel in 5 days ago

More gremlins, have had the crank sensor changed again. Was running like it had a fuel problem . Was serviced in August. Maybe time for a newer octavia

Gear box oil level should have been sorted as car was given full service so all fluids should have been changed for new.

Just as I'm moving of / or riding clutch waiting to move. 2nd gear also but not at a higher speed / power. 3rd and 4rth seem to be ok. Car not worth much and have just spent a few quid sorting out suspension components

Anybody know for sure ?

hi folks I have noticed a whining noise in 1st and 2nd gear at low speeds / moving away. Noticed it on yesterday's drive driving down from just outside fort william and a wee while ago whst nipping out to shop. Car has done 149000miles and was serviced last week. Please tell me its a thrust release bearing or clutch and not anything to do with the gearbox
