hi guys, me an the misses set off in the car to do a bit of shopping today, car started an drove like normal, however after returning back to the car started fine, but when i pulled off she was very juddery an very little power when eccelerating, so i decided to take the car back home which was a struggle, as i could go no faster than 25 mph. i have done a search on the problem which makes me think it could be the coil pack. can anybody shed any light on my problem as the misses needs the car for work. oh an the car is w reg gti many thanks

Deffo coil pack or spark plugs mate, look under the bonnet while the engine is running and see if there is any jolts of electricity coming from the coil pack and going to the rocker cover, if so then you need a new coil pack which you can get from a scrappy from a 206 and a saxo. Also like i said check your spark plugs to see if its them
