Conclusion Volkswagen Golf Bad Fuel Pump. The symptoms of a bad fuel pump match a lot of other common problems that can occur in the Volkswagen Golf. Testing the filter and pressure on each side of it are going to be the quickest ways to rule it out. If there is anything you would like to add, please leave a comment below. Good luck!

Rear heating/air Turboissue on my MK6 GTI -09 Hi everyone, my first post here Since I´ve bought the GTI last year I've been noticing something odd about the throttle response. The car does´nt accelerate smoothly, and theres no freakin turbo sound either. So genius that I am this made me suspicious. I let the VW dealer take a look at it here in Stockholm.Firstoff all thank you very much for your answer. The timing belt used was continental, with all the pulleys aswell. The water pump was original vw. There are no fault codes whatsoever nor is there any behavior change as far as driving goes. It does the same thing with castrol edge 5w 40, and now the motul x-clean 8100 +, 5w 30 vw 504.00, 507.
Thelist of common issues doesn't stop at the engine either. They are now at the age where the chassis components are in need of replacement to keep them driving nicely. Steering racks for example, not cheap. Seized rear control arms. Console bush bolts snapping when upgrading to a WALK.
