dasbozo 10 Posted May 9, 2017 Hi, ive been searching for answers to this problem for a couple weeks now and idk if im just not using the right words to describe it or if its just an uncommon problem. The issue im having is, my car "jumps" randomly. By this i mean acts like its about to cut out and maybe die, like when your young and new to a standard you might accidently try take off in third if in a hurry and the car jumps and stalls out. Well my car doesnt stall out and acts normal when i take it back out of gear and put it back in once or twice and boom good to go. Car starts easy and idles fine, im wondering if it could be the clutch? Since when it jumps if i just pull it out of gear it idles fine in neutral and for the most part after being put back in gear takes off just fine. Thank you for your time and if possible your help Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ryan_welshman 10 Posted May 14, 2017 I had this problem on my 16v. The crank sensor connections in the plug had become internally damaged so its a new sensor Sent from my SM-T705 using Tapatalk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buttles 0 Posted May 15, 2017 Does it try and cut out whilst driving along with no input from you? How long ago were the ECU and fuel pump relays changed? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
