I was just reading up on these APR pumps, lot of money but this maybe what I need. My car has been stuttering and kangarroing badly but typically VW cant find nothing wrong with it so I am booked in with JKM in a few weeks time. I noticed when the tank is half full or full its not too bad, if I run it low so about 50 miles to fill up its horrendous, the stuttering is bonkers. I have had new divertor valve, spark plugs and coil packs in last 4 months so I was thinking it maybe fuel starvation ? Could this be the problem does anyone think ?
Could be an overheating low pressure fuel pump that's in the tank. The fuller tank may be masking the issue by keeping the pump cool.

That being said, have you changed your fuel filter recently?


No I havent, only got car 6 months ago , its had loads of stuff done on the warranty but thats not one of them.
