Ok,
A2 1.2 with automatic gearbox, when the car shifts gear, it cuts throttle and go to idle, then as soon as shifting is complete, throttle is applied again. This is how it works from the factory.
I now have a problem, usually when car is cold, it can happen 2-4 times before it stops happening, there are also days where it doesnt happen.
Car shifts, cuts throttle, and car stays on idle, i.e you loose all power,pumping throttle does not result in anything.
The mechanism that cuts the throttle (electric I guess) is still active.
The only fix is to switch car off, start, and it works as it should. It can then re-occur after 5-20 minutes, restart needed.
On highway, I can put gear in neutral, switch off car, and lightly press the brake and restart while rolling without power, put gear in drive and continue, but I do not like to do this to be honest..
Can anyone help with this? What part should i focus on?
This might have started after I took off the hood and pressure washed the engine bay a month ago.
All help is highly appreciated.
