| Description of the problem | I have a 2019 volkswagen gti 6 speed manual transmission. While i was out running errands to the local food store and hardware store, i came to a complete and full stop at a stop sign. At this time the car was in neutral with the clutch pedal disengaged and the brake pedal depressed. I noticed the car had a soft stall. This happened a total of about 6 times. It is almost as if the car has the auto stop feature that turns the engine off at a full and complete stop but my car is not equipped with that option. I feel as if the engine is the problem because it is cutting off. I also feel it could be the transmission thinking that the car is in a different gear and not enough rpms to sustain that gear. I also feel it could be a vacuum leak which is not sending the right signals to the engine computer or something else. At the time of this happening it was sunny and in mid fifties in temperature. |
