three codes come up, p0102 which is the maf, i know that much.
and p2637 comes up twice, thats traction managment no signal or something like that. anyone have any info???

story goes that i took it to the track, 2 runs no issues, last run about the 1000 foot mark it looses all power and coasts across the line at an amazing 19.8 seconds. so now there is very little power, the gas pedal works for about 3 inches pushing down, then after that it does nothing more. also the car has no vibrations no abnormal feeling, only at shifts, its hard as hell which i think is a sticking valve body due to the stupid ass idea vw had to make sealed trannys. also the traction control light stays on (off) and wont turn back on (activated). and the abs modual whines at random times. more whine then not. any info is appreciated

Well if the MAF is disconnected the traction control will be disabled. Id say that the MAF is your problem. Take a look at it, Maybe someone else can shed more light on it.

 

so that would mean if the maf is reading wrong the traction control should be off too??

 

yeah its in limp mode, unplug the maf and see what happens.

 

mmmm lame ass vw limp mode, everyone else just goes to like 2 or 3k rpm, noooo vw has to go all the way to redline just slow as shit.....

 

try a new maf and see what happens or get ahold of a scan tool and look at the load % and see what it is, should be around 20% ish, and look at fuel trims also

 

well i just found out that the extended warrenty covers it so im taking it tomorrow to brandon vw and getting what i can get fixed for free
