its a VW 1,9 so i assume its a diesel and if so then its most likely to be the EGR valve ,try cleaning it or block it off as this motor also has a turbo then ensure that the high pressure pipes havent split or burst .without my head in the engine i honestly cannot tell you what exactly to look for
I have a 2.4 diesel 375 nm model and i have been told that the problem is solved by installing the correct fuel filter. Mine loses all power and stops, and the curly light comes on, and I switch it off and start it again. It works every time but is bloody dangerous on a hill when passing someone and towing a trailer.
possibly it's your fuel injectors first check your fuel filter then fuel pressure and volume. Just a suggestion disconnect you battery and reconnect it is like hard booting you PC at home, might just reset your cars problem.
these vehicles are known for ignition coil failure. typical symptoms include: Misfire, power loss, vibrating engine, poor fuel consumption. If the vehicle's engine vibrates, it be misfiring. Is your chk engine light on???
Sounds like the transmission went south on you..(surge and power loss was the trans not sending power to the wheels, allowing the engine to freewheel as the cruise applied more power to try and maintain speed).Depending upon how high the rpm's went when it let go, it may have damaged the engine, but that remains to be determined...Your mechanic will likely concentrate on that before putting a transmission on a wounded engine. The one grain of hope in what you said is that it remained running while you had the a/c on waiting for a tow. Good Luck!!
some power steering system is computer control. if you disconnect battery the control module have to be program.the control module uses vechicle speed sensor and steering wheel rotation sensor.to operate an actuator in the power steering pump to control pump pressure and steering assistance.
this is a self preservation device fitted to all newish vehicles. this is usually caused by the cam sensor being faulty or damaged, making the vehicle restrict itself so as not to damage anything while under them conditions. the sensor is not usually easy to get to as it is contained inside the cam housing on the top of the engine.
If no, suspect you have an air lock in the fuel injection system.
Simplest way for you to eliminate it, is to undo each of the 4 injector feed pipe nuts, half a turn, whilst the engine is running, at approx 1OOO RPM, the air will be forced out along with a squirt of diesel, and you should be back to normal.
