I have a 2012 Cabrio S with about 51,000 miles (bought new).
I need some help. My car has not stalled but has had engine sputters and pauses like my '63 bug. Since the dealers mechanic forgot to attach the intake hose sending me down the highway, check engine light coming on. Was the first time the sputtering, almost stalling has happened. I have had spark plugs replaced, fuel pump and it still a prob. I do not know if the 8 miles I drove with that vacuum leak caused any damage. I was freeway driving, half of it I thought my car handling normal due to the loaner I had just given back, it was a new JCW club, fast. I know it is only a guess but could use some advice. I want to keep my cab!
