#1: Is my pug in a bad way? Author: Pug475, Posted: Sun Jul 28, 2013 7:21 pm ---- Hi all
Recently my Pug 206gti has been running a bit rough to say the least. I started it this morning which took 3 attempts and when it finally did start it didn't want to idle for that long.
Once the car warms up it runs ok and every now and then it stalls at idle which is not suitable if you're at an intersection.
One more thing!
When I accelerate I can hear a rattling noise coming from the engine. This only happens under acceleration and not when revving.
