Morning chaps
My Mk5 GTI has intermittently been jerking/cutting off but only when I release the throttle. No issues on WOT whatsoever.
I'm thinking coilpack/throttle position sensor/MAF/cam follower(although I replaced this about 30 000km's ago and car is stock). Last diagnostic did not throw any error codes.
As usual I need to lead a horse to water so need to point the service centre in the right direction. Any ideas?
Thanks.

As Panic said,
i would check spark plugs and coil packs for starters.

Re: Hesitation coming off throttle
Rather late update, but anyway...turned out to be a missing rubber grommet on the dipstick.

Re: Hesitation coming off throttle
Come to think if it, it did at times but then I put it down to the car being cold.
To clarify, the grommet was broken, just hanging onto the dipstick.

Re: Hesitation coming off throttle
I've seen this on S3's too - a damaged dipstick caused rough idle and hesitation, presumably due to pressure loss. New one went in and voila! Magic happened.

It's not how you stand by your car; it's how you scrape your car. You better learn that.

Re: Hesitation coming off throttle
Yup, a simple dipstick caused a sphincter-tightening reaction. Glad though that it was a easy fix.
