iv had a one off problem with my mk1 180, i was coming off a slip road behind a very slow moving car, sitting in 3rd gear at about 30mph, as i joined the main road i went to give it a bit of beans to get up to speed with the rest of the traffic and nothing happened
so i let off the throttle and then tryed again which resulted in me juddering down the road not really picking up any speed, pulled over as soon as i could and the car sounded as rough as hell, as if it was misfiring, so i switched it off and checked the leads etc and everything looked fine, got back in the car fired it up and drove it again, it drove without fault, nice smooth power etc, wierd, i pulled into a garage to ask to take a quick look and they couldnt find any problem and said it was probably having a funny 5 minutes, the car has driven faultlessly since as it always has, any ideas what this could of been? maybe telling me it wants a service?
