Hi all,

Had my golf for nearly 3 years and been nothing but problems.

The latest problem is that it keeps stalling when coming to a stop.

it fires up again after about 2 minutes of cranking.

its driving me mad.

it used to stop if you filled the tank and would only start again at about half a tank but today its been doing it after a full tank.

any ideas? im getting to the end of my tether with this car.

Ive had new head + oil cooler fitted about 30000 miles ago.

cheers

Matt

If it's related to the fuel level, it can only be the lift pump in the tank, I would imagine the fuel pickup has broken, or corroded.

Did the car misfire if you cornered hard when the the tank was getting towards half full? i.e. just before it cut out?
