Ok so my friend just bought a 95 tsi ( from this site, its black 95 tsi with cloth intr )
Well me and him met up and drove each others cars.
He pointed out a problem, and then called me this morning to say it got alot worse.
Last night when i drove it, I saw what he was talking about.
5th gear seems to have a problem.
1-4 shift and accel/decel just fine and smooth.
But when in 5th gear, No matter what rpm your at, it feels like its too low... Like your gonna stall...
you still accelerate but it feels like your gonna stall.
You know, when your in third gear and rpms are too low, kinda shakey so you downshift?
WELL its that, only with 5th gear. And it doesnt matter what rpm it is.
We were doing 70mph in 5th gear around 3k rpm and if I tried to accelerate it felt like the rpms were too low.
What could the problem be?
Thanks!
