Hey guys, thank you for the help. My Passat now dies when you put it in drive. It goes great in reverse.
It all started with a bad ICM. Changed that, then the MAF went out, then the O2 sensor, then the coolant temp sensor. All brand new.
I also changed the COP and the plugs themselves.
The car ran good, then started bogging down when it got warm and you stopped. Very low RPMs , then all of a sudden they RPMs would shoot up and it would go. Then it started dying when you stopped. Now it starts great. No CEL light, but when you put it in Drive it dies.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
