I just want to say Hi to the other members. I have just been given a 110k 2004 Tdi Sport from a friend, I have given him lots of free help over the years with his business and the car was a "thank you" as he is being hit by Ulez expansion and needed to get rid of it.
He replaced his A2 Tdi with a petrol A2
My first impressions are what fun it is to drive... my partner and I both love it. so its a keeper...
I have a few things I need to sort out though, including;
Perhaps the most annoying/worrying is that when it is under load, accelerating hard in 3 gear (especially up a hill) it judders and feels like a petrol engine misfiring.
What if any of the above can be fixed rather than replaced and does anyone have a clue about the juddering?
I am based in North Yorkshire but travel down A1/M1 fairly often to London.

I have a few things I need to sort out though, including;
- the Left hand cup holder won't stay in.
- Lock switch for rear electric windows won't latch so my little girl cant operate her rear window.
- Near side rear light cluster is cracked and needs replacing
- Need a spare key
- Engine warning light on - I've plugged a cheap Bluetooth EL327 scanner in and read the code. P00118. I have therefore bought a new temp sensor and thermostat (both febi Bilstein). the temp reading on the dash never rises above 65C.
- there is no record of a cambelt/water pump replacement, so need to get that done, can anyone recommend someone "up north" ?
- Deep paint scratch
