VW shaking I have VW Jetta 2.0 1995. When I start cold engine-it starts great but than it cut out by itself. It can't hold engine speed without pressing accelerator. When I start driving- car is shaking in each gear especially when I hold pedal in the same speed. If I press acelerator down-it is not shaking but once I hold it-it start shaking again. Moreover it is shaking in neutral if I press accelerator a little especially in 1000-2000 rph range. No CE light. I replaced Throttle position sensor and distributor. Shaking dissapeared for 500 miles and now came back again. Maybe it is because bad wire connection somewhere? Thank you.

Sounds like the fuel pressure regulator but first try new fuel filter and maybe clean spark plugs and reset them

2002 vw jetta, gas smell & shaking after 60mph
Well if the check engine light is on then there is something wrong, now you need the engine control module scanned for fault codes to begin to understand the problem that turned the light on, you need an OBD2 code reader (about $35.00) as a minimum to read the codes.

-It could be low compression due to blow head gasket, Burn valve. Bad injector (s). Low fuel presure


Good luck

2003 vw jetta wolfsburg bogs on early acceleration
Don't know if it applies to your diesel but most later gas engined vehicles have a 'cold start' valve that supplies additional fuel to the fuel/air mix along with boosting the idle speed until some warming of the engine is sensed.
