    Does the stalling only effect 90TSI's fitted with DSG or is it getting manuals as well?

    Maybe take it on a bit of a high-speed run on the highway (if it doesn't get that already) - blow any crud outta the engine..

    Been down the Stuart Hwy on a drive. 130km/h speed limit. 90% of driving is done in 80km/h and 100km/h zones.

    Hi Dave,
    I have a brand new 90TSI in Perth and the exact same thing is happening with my car (happens about once a week). It can actually be quite dangerous as last time my engine cut out in the middle of an intersection as i was waiting to turn right. In the time it takes to get the car going again someone could clean you up. I took it into the dealer and they couldn't find anything wrong and they couldn't replicate the problem (what are the chances on a 5min test drive they were going to replicate it) and so they said they would register my problem and if they can fix it in the future they will call me. It has happened twice since then.
    Please let me know if you get any updates on the problem, i am going to call them again this week.
    In all other aspects though i am loving the car.

    Im not sure is it related to this:

    poor throttle response at start
    (only 1.4 TSI 122PS) - The engine responds poorly to gas, this can lead to the stalling of the engine when pulling away.- There is an update of the engine control unit. Error VW complain.

    and it is coming from this German website (translated)

    http://translate.google.com/translat...3Den%26tl%3Dde

    I am concern because my daughter and wife are driving 90TSI ... current mileage 3000km and no problems.

    ...as in the same thing I mentioned back in #8 Mirsad. Strange thing is - if that is the cause, surely it would have been addressed by now as that issue dates back 9 months. Any recent build TSI90 should have the ECU fix in place I would have thought. But is seems not.

    That is what I was hopping when purchasing 90TSI in Dec 09 .(with built date Sep 09) anyway my daughter and wife are without problems (touch wood) ...

    I posted that website address again because some people (like me ... some threads are pages long) are not reading threads from their first page.

    Anyway hope that people with DSG stalling are going to fix their problems.

    Mine did it again yesterday whilst waiting at an intersection. Engine was completely warmed up too. Maybe the little guy inside the mechatronic unit had a sore left leg and needed a bit of a rest.

    Did you manage to find the problem?. I have got a Golf TSi and had only done 400km and experienced it at the red light when I tried to move. My daughter had the same problem and this was quite dangerous as the car was moving and it stalled.
