As I was pulling out of my office parking garage my car had a loss of engine power and a rough idle. Within a minute while I was waiting at the light the idle smooth out to normal. I ran a Vag on it when I got home and this is the only fault that came up.

How old is your battery? And are the connections solid/clean?

Greg225TT

Original battery (2002)...and I haven't checked the connections yet, but will tonight.

Kombi(kombiinstrument) is your instrument cluster and wegfahrsperre should be your immobilizer. It could be that you had a loss of complete power that sometimes happens with older (almost empty) batteries.

It is probably time for a new battery. Hopefully that is the only problem.

Batteries a fairly inexpensive. Low voltage on the battery does strange things to our cars.

mine did the EXACT same thing when the battery was about to give up.

cold all night and the battery was very week the next morning. I almost changed it then, but over the winter it has not shown any signs of begining to fail. Probably since it is in the garage every night, and does not get the full effect of the cold weather.
