I had a strange thing happen on my last road trip in my 92 talon tsi.
When driving on the highway with cruise, the car suddenly felt as though it had zero power, the boost went way up, and the check engine came on. When I pressed the gas, it felt as though there was no power. The car maintained its speed, I assume because of the cruise control. After about 30-40 seconds, everything went back to normal with a surge that felt like launching at the starting line.
This happened 3 or 4 times. When I turned off the cruise, it did not fail at all. Is it possible the cruise control could be impacting this? Possible relay problem? I had problems engaging it.
The car goes in next week to be checked out.
Thanks in advance.
