| 2011 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING | DURING REGULAR SLOW TRAFFIC DRIVING CONDITIONS MY 2011 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF TDI DISPLAYED THE "ENGINE CONTROL MALFUNCTION" LIGHT ON MY INSTRUMENT PANEL. I QUICKLY PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. AFTER WAITING SEVERAL MINUTES I STARTED THE VEHICLE AGAIN AND THE LIGHT TURNED OFF. AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES OF DRIVING, THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND I NOTICED AN EXTREME LOSS OF POWER. I PULLED OVER AGAIN WITHIN A FEW MINUTES AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. THIS TIME I WAITED ALMOST 15 MINUTES BEFORE TRYING TO START THE VEHICLE AGAIN AND IT WOULD NOT START. I THOUGHT I WAS OUT OF DIESEL AS THE LOW FUEL LIGHT HAD ALSO JUST COME ON SO I CALLED SOMEONE TO BRING ME 5 GALLONS OF DIESEL THINKING MAYBE I WAS OUT. AFTER REFUELING, THE VEHICLE STILL WOULDN'T START SO I HAD IT TOWED TO THE CLOSEST VW DEALER. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP AND I AM CURRENTLY WAITING FOR IT TO BE REPAIRED. THIS HAPPEND ON A SATURDAY AND IT IS NOW 4 DAYS LATER. *TR |
