Weren't you thinking of getting a new car anyways?

[rock0134]

how many miles were on the motor? Or did you rebuild it

[crunchymilk55]

Are you sure? measured crank play? I've seen plenty of cases where it turned out to be something else.

I'm not totally sure but I kind of assumed so once the clutch stuck to the floor. Basically what happened was that I was driving to go visit my granpa in the "home" and I get on the high way and everything is cool untill I shift into 5th and go to about 75 and then I noticed this weird jerking, kind of like trying to boost with a boost leak, and it got progressivle worse so I pulled over at a rest stop and everything looked ok and it reved fine but once there was a load it ran like crap. I decided to turn around at the next over pass and by the time I got there there was no throttle responce and I had to feather it to keep it running. As I'm on my way home it dies so I start it back up and I have to play the throttle to get past 2k every once in a while it would get up to 5k or so and I'd quick put it in gear and get to 40 and then have to coast untill I could do it again. I got back to town about when I got in the clutch started to stick to the floor and I made it about a mile away from my house when it gave out. There was about 65k on the motor. Oh and brian, if you want to buy my wheels I'll sell them to you.

Sucks man, sry to hear the news. What you plan to do..make sure it cw'd? 6 bolt time?? sell??

[Blackcrow64]

I sent you a PM Scott.

Look under your driver side floor mat, rub your hand all over that area behind the pedals and such. Is there a wet spot?

[blk_srt]

No wet spot. My plan it to diagnose the problem and if it needs a rebuild its stroker time

[crunchymilk55]

yeah it doesn't really sounds like CW, sounds like a broke clutch

My tsi have that wet spot !!!

[blk_srt]

There isnt any problem with the car moving though the problem is it wont stay running. When I can get it to actually rev and let the clutch out the goes like a bat out of hell but I can go WOT and it will stay at 700 rpm. If I let it idle after a few seconds of spitting missing and poping it will stablize around 1500rpm but as soon as I hit the gas there is nothing. I know its not the clutch.

EDIT: At high rpms it runs good, best launches that I've had(Had to let the clutch out at 5k to keep it going)

I don't think it's CW. Usually when that happens, if you drive it and put even the slightest amount of stress on the motor, the crank will "walk" and knock out the crank sensor, which in turn kills the whole car. Definitely measure crank end play before tearing too deep into anything.
