Why Is My Golf3 Jerking? by Nobody: 5:19pm On Sep 25, 2014
I need serious help here. I have a golf 3 (Pink Floyd) 1994 Model. For some time now i have been experiencing jerking with the car. Mechanics say it's electrical and electricians say it's mechanical. It got to point that the jerking was so bad that the car hardly moves. My instincts tells me that something must have been wornout but i can't say for sure. Please experts, i need advice. I can be reached on 08066827463 or even whatsapp on same number. Thanks.

grin. Funny poster. For a 1994 model its going to be difficult to run a scan. But if you are ready there are a lot of experts in the house. Reach out to any of them not the reverse of the case

You need to introduce your golf b4 anyone can help you. I believe that's d reason u wr called a funny poster. You need to state what kind of engine you are driving(I4, V6n, VR5, VR6), if you have an injector or a carburettor, the type of transmission(manual, automatic) and some extent of your maintenance history. Cheers.

It's manual transmission. With electric shooter (not carburetor or injector but in between, so the mechanics say). As for the engine type honestly i don't know. I be real novice when it comes to vehicles. As for maintenance history, the engine has been changed once together with the gear box. Thank you. Hopefully awaiting your next reply please.

Does your engine have 4plugs, 5plugs or 6plugs? As for d jerking, let them check:
1. Your fuel filter for clogging, if clogged, it shld be replaced.
2. Your fuel pump might be failing. Your technicians shld run a fuel pressure test.
3. Your electric distributor could be faulty, thereby not sending required current to your plugs.
4. ECU, probably faulty.
The Golf3 is OBD2 compliant, so a scan can be done on it to help narrow down d actual culprit.
.
Finally sir, I'm afraid of the guys working on ur car. Cos there's no such thing as an "in-between" of a carburettor and an injector (never heard of it). You need another technician.

First of all, thank you so so much.
The engine has only four plugs. The fuel pump is new anyway but i will have them check all you mentioned. Thank you once more
