99.5 a4 1.8t mt 200k miles apr stage 1
when ambient temp goes below 60 degrees, my car will stumble/miss multiple time when under full throttle and under 3300 rpm (about 15 psi).
this is a new problem, my car has been configured this way for 4 years, 90000 miles. after 3300 rpm, it runs perfect.
generally when outside temp is above 60 psi, it won't have this problem. it's generally in 3rd 4th and 5th gear when engine is at max torque.
for instance, if i floor it on the highway in 5th gear, it will stumble and jerk in between 2700 and 3300 rpm.
when this first started, i put a new set of bkr7e spark plugs in. i've used these plugs for 4 years.
the only thing that has been replaced since last winter was the ignition control module (the thing on top of the airbox). replaced with made in USA bosch unit.
it feels WAY too jerky to be a boost leak/loss problem. but i've been wrong before.
what do you guys think??
thanks for the help
