Alright so my wife drives a 2001 Jetta same car iv asked for help with before. Well I'm back at it trying to figure this thing out I get it running good fuel economy is a consistent 42 if not better at times well she calls today saying it's dieing at stoplites when she downshifts and was hard to start . Get it home hit it with the vcds/vagcom nothing comes up but a p3105 I clear the codes it barely starts and I stab the throttle and let off and it stalls . Check readings iq is high at 14.2 the timing is 3.7 btdc and my maf is 850 I bump the iq down to 6.2 all and all it runs like but idles great I feel the timing is a bit retarded and a possible air intrusion any vw gurus out there that can steer me in the right direction or is it time for a road flare in the back seat
