Hi All-
Our 02 golf has new plugs ,coil pack & catalytic conv.
Every time we go up some major hills going 50+mph, it chugs,hesitates and eng. light flashes, its never done this on flat rd. or smaller hills. The eng light never stays on though.. I had it scan it shows nothing! Geez!
If you have experienced the same and found a solution I need your help.
Could it be a fuel filter?
Thank You all,

| A flashing MIL indicates misfires. If it keeps doing this, you'll be buying another CAT. How old are the plug wires? If you are not sure, they a a cheap thing to change. And for misfires, one of the first things to change, cause they are kinda hard to tell if they are good or not, unless you can actually see the spark leaking thru o them. |
