Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Running Rough / Flat Spot When Accelerating Around 2000 And 2600 RPM

My 2.0 recently had some problems with the coil pack so I replaced it. Now my car hits a "flat spot" when accelerating around 2000 RPM and then another around 2600 RPM. If I am in 3rd gear going about 20MPH and I press the gas about 25-30% it sort of shakes and won't accelerate and when I take my foot off the gas and slowly ease the pedal down it accelerates fine.

My car also runs pretty rough at a cold idle(misfires). When I press the gas it sounds smooth until it gets back to idle. At any temp my car runs really rough with the A/C on. I also hear a rattle/Buzz around my relay panel when the A/C is on. My car is a 1999 2.0 AEG. I don't have VAG-COM just a generic scanner and the last codes I got were:

P0134
P0135
P0141

I replaced both O2 sensors and the beginning of this year and those codes came back right after I did them. I will scan tomorrow and post any new codes.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Growling Noise At 1900 RPMs When Car Is Under Load

I recently purchased a 2003 jetta 1.8t 5 speed manual and it wasn't making this noise when I first bought it.. It's almost like a growling/grinding noise. It's sounds like it's coming from my middle console but it could be coming from the engine bay hard to tell, but the only time this noise happens is at 1900 rpms when the car is under load like if I'm going a hill it's pretty loud when I'm going slow, the previous owner had the water pump, timing belt, and clutch done 10k miles ago. I have a feeling it's from the clutch/transmission or maybe from the timing belt?

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Rattle Coming From Back Of Engine Near Intake Manifold When Rev A Little

I have a 01 vr6 mk4 gti. When I bought the car I noticed a rattle but never paid mind to it. But now I just want it fixed. I hear the rattle come from the back of the engine near the intake manifold when I rev it a little. The most rpms the louder the rattle . I been doing some research and came to a conclusion that it could be the shift rod and bad intake bushing. But, I'll like a link on how to replace the shift rod.

GTI 337/20th Anniversary :: Vibrating Noise Coming From Turbo When Rev Up To And About 2600 RPMs

When I drive my car past about 3000 rpms then let them fall i hear an odd sort of vibrating noise coming from the turbo between where ever I rev it up to and about 2600 rpms. Is this normal? Its fairly quiet and can only be heard without the radio on and if your listening for it. This worries me because I've only had this k03 for about 5000 miles .Some background info I am chipped with uni at 20psi, full 3" turbo back and an 007 dv.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Constant Faint Rattle When Idling

So I recently swapped my 2.8l 12v vr6 for the same engine because mine blew up, everything went good and the car runs great but there is a faint kind of rattling sound coming from the top of my motor, when its idling it will be a constant faint rattle. It gets worse as i accelerate between 3 to 4.5 rpms but then stops making the noise when i really start cooking so Idk if I just can't hear it or what. I've tried looking it up but i can't seem to find a video that has the same problems as my car. My father told me it could be my rockers or valves and others have told me it could be my timing chain or guides. I would love to just take it to vw to get it diagnosed but I don't have the money. I will try and upload a video of the sound ....

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Rattle In Engine Bay At 2500 - 3000 RPM

The rattle, 1.8t GLI

-2500-3000 RPM

-Car can be in gear or out of gear, rev rattle is the same.

-Sometimes, I can hear the rattle when the car is off and I slam the door slightly harder than usual.

-My hood release cable may have been the culprit, but I could only zip-tie part of it and the rattle hasn't changed.

One really important clue is that when I have reached around the area between my engine and airbox, the rattle has gone away. So I had a bad coolant flange, so when reaching my phone down there to take pictures, I must have bumped or pressed something because the noise was gone for about a mile.

I recently had my airbox out and a visual inspection didn't show any promise and tapping on random parts didn't recreate the sound.

There is am RPM rattle near my airbox....

Golf/GTI VII :: Rattle Coming From Center Arm Rest

It took a long time to figure it out where this rattle was coming from, when I did i was on my road trip to Smokey Mountains, i couldn't wait to get to the dealer and just solved it myself.

Just extend the arm rest and raise it you will find a rectangle shaped plastic which moves back and forth, remove this plastic. Be careful when pulling it out, or you might end up like i did (check pic), i don't intend to put the plastic back. Center arm rest raised and extended out.

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Rear Suspension Rattle After Coilover Install

This previous weekend, my buddies and I finally got my FK coilovers installed on my GTI. I have heard that people say there is a little bit of rattling upon them getting properly seated. Well it has been 4 days of driving and now sounds like the rattling has gotten worse! I took it into a local suspension shop and they couldn't put a thumb on it. We in-turn found out that my rear hub bearing was going out and has since been replace. Having issues with coilovers? I have contacted the company that I purchased them through already and am awaiting feedback from them.

Pic of the car in question. (Before coilovers)...

Golf IV / Jetta IV :: Rattle Snake Sound After Clutch Swap

2000 GTI all stock 220K miles

AEG motor

02J transmission

I just swapped clutch on the manual transmission of 2.0L 4 cylinder GTI.

Now every time I start the motor, I hear high pitched rattlesnake sound. It starts about 2-3 seconds after the motor starts.

The sound is coming from center of oil pan or downpipe area but can't tell how high on the motor's long block the source of sound is located at.

Check out the following youtube video. You can hear the sound at 9 seconds and it get really audible around 12 - 14 seconds and disappears around 21 seconds. I can hear this sound for the whole duration of motor running. The sound is not coming from the downpipe cover.
