All I was doing was testing the jetta
Well last night when I left my office the jetta wasnt working properly, my girl comes by my work after hers and stays with me. So we went home and after dinner I decided to test the car out. The problem was that the car had a very rough start and the idle was hiccuping. So I took it out and was redlining the car in 1st and 2nd letting the boost breathe out since my girl drives it mainly on all engine. She swears the car hates her cause everytime it's having problems and I drive it the problems go away.
We are at a red light and I'm revving it trying not to allow the revs to fall so the car wont shut off. Well it seems that I caught the attention of a G35 who thought I was revving at him. The guy takes off as the light goes green so I follow. I Short shift into 2nd cause in 1st I lose too much traction, didn't help since I lost traction in 2nd anyways along with alot of torque steer to the left. once the car straightened out though I ran past him almost as if he was standing still. The guy looked at us as we passed by and I swear I saw him go "No! Monica!" We took the car back to my house and the Idle issue had passed. I gave my girl my diagnosis. Redline it in 2nd once a day as you go onto the expressway so you stay in the speed limit and call me in the morning. So she called me in the morning today telling me the car was fine.
