Hi All,

Newbie here! Hoping someone can assist me with me 2013 Polo GTI misfires and stuttering:

Hi all,

First time poster.

I have an issue with my 2013 Polo GTI 135000kms, where it stutters especially noticeable going up hills and constant misfires.

One day it will drive fine and the next borderline undriveable until you get to 3rd or 4th gear.

I feel like the engine doesn't "engage" until in 3rd or 4th gear if that makes sense! Pre all these issues gear 1 and 2 would be a breeze and the car sounding like it should!

I have changed coil packs, spark plugs, carbon cannister, it has been regularly maintained serviced both by VW and independent mechanic. I would be more than happy to leave it with my mechanic over a long period of time to diagnose and fix the issue although I am sharing a car at the moment which makes this impossible.

From what I have found online it could be, something in the wiring loom or the high pressure fuel pump.

Hoping someone has had a similar experience and can point me in the right direction.

Thanks,
