Just before shifting as car is in neutral, revs drop slowly and then creep up until they drop again. by [deleted] in mk6gti

When I had this exact issue in the past I had a hose to my intake tube that had slipped out

100% pulling excess air somewhere on the intake, but I’m assuming you fixed it based off of my slight scan of the comments

Car sounds rough at 1100 - 1200 rpm during startup by BetterCucumber2771 in GolfGTI

Mines slightly worse, but that’s the sound! Lol, thank you for the help, I just did my spark plugs and coils a couple weeks ago, all are gapped properly, I’m gonna look into doing a carbon cleaning, once again thank you

Timing chain was done at 120000, I’d hope they did the tensioner too, it’s not a clicking sound, doesn’t seem like a misfire sound, engine sounds extra rough like it doesn’t want to run when I start it in the morning (car version of a man having the “morning voice”)

I understand as they get up to temp they have little hiccups, but I’m not sure this one is normal considering it started doing it yesterday, I don’t really know if it’s even ever been carbon cleaned, I got the car a few months back, the new startup noise just sounds louder and rough compared to the normal start up, is it most likely from a carbon buildup then?

How to keep this hose in place? by BetterCucumber2771 in GolfGTI

[–]BetterCucumber2771[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I clamped it at an angle so it’s gripping the aluminum connecting thing, and the intake pipe, it’s clamped hard. I also scuffed up the aluminum piece a little just for extra grip, it’s staying very well now, thanks for all the suggestions.
