2019 Volkswagen Golf GTI 4 DR FWD

11/2021 @ 5927 miles - sunny day, no vehicle in front, without warning AEB lit up, flashing and automatic brakes engaged, vibration felt, bringing car to near stop for no reason. Speed approx 35 mph on flat, straight roadway, approx 4 lanes heading one direction. Could have been rear-ended since car stopped suddenly. No prior occurrence. VW Case #05016886 created by VW upon contacting. Recommended VW service inspection. VW service stated Fault C113B00 for hill descent button, which this model doesn’t have hill descent option. VW technician reconfigured the ABS module to rectify error.

The car idles rough during initial cold start up, intermittently hesitates during acceleration and feels like it misfires during cruising. My dealer found that the ignition timing was retarded by 5º and told me to use better gas, citing a VW field service action (https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2020/MC-10176770-0001.pdf). The problem persisted after they treated the fuel. The car has never thrown a code causing the check engine light to turn on, and so the dealer has declined to investigate further. My records show the car was only filled with premium fuel, using VW recommended brands (BP, Exxon, Mobil, Shell) in the 2,000 miles prior to the service appointment and was only filled with regular fuel twice (due to the Colonial Pipeline shutdown) since the car was delivered new from the dealer.

Intermittent warning light on dash indicating, "Cruise control system malfunction".The owner's manual says to have the system checked by Volkswagen. The dealer said the vehicle is operating normally. I first noticed this the day after service action code 24FX was completed on 4/8/21. I noticed this four more times since.

AUTONOMOUS EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK IN EMERGENCY SITUATION - DID NOT DEPLOY IN A REAR-END COLLISION SITUATION.

ENGINE STALLED WHILE STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD ON NEW CAR. START/STOP FEATURE WAS DISABLED AND I WAS RETURNING HOME. THE ENGINE WAS WARMED UP. THE VEHICLE DISPLAY INFORMED ME TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND RESTART THE VEHICLE MANUALLY. THIS GTI HAS THE DSG AUTO TRANSMISSION.

ENGINE HESITATE, STUMBLE AND JERK FROM STOP TO THE FIRST 5 GEARS AND MAKE WHINING NOISE. BRAND NEW CAR! SCARY DO DRIVE AND DANGEROUS. HAVE THE CAR FOR ABOUT 2 WEEKS, 1,500 MILES.

ENGINE STALLS REPEATEDLY WHILE SLOWING TO A STOP

2019 GTI 6MT STALLS. THE ISSUE PRESENTS ITSELF SLOWING DOWN TO A STOP, WHERE THE ENGINE WILL SOFT STALL AND REQUIRE RESTARTING. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHEN STOPPED AT A LIGHT, AS WELL AS WHEN IN MOTION, COASTING TO A STOP. IT HAS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY, IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, AS WELL AS PARKING IN A PARKING SPOT. THE UNSAFE CONDITION IS WHEN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, IN RUSH HOUR ON RT 287 (MAJOR HIGHWAY) COASTING TO A STOP, THE ENGINE DIES AND I LOOSE CONTROL OF THE STEERING WHEEL CONTROL AND ACCELERATION. THE START STOP BUTTON NEEDS TO BE PUSHED TO GET THE CAR TO START UP AGAIN. THE CAR IS BRAND NEW AND HAS ROUGHLY 650 MILES ON IT.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE REARVIEW MIRROR DEVELOPED A STRESS CRACK WHICH MAY AFFECT VISIBILITY. THE ISSUE WAS NOT CAUSED BY ROAD DEBRIS. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY.

I HAD SOME ENGINE STALL PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE WHEN FIRST PURCHASED. THE ENGINE WOULD CUT OFF QUIETLY WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT AND BEGINNING TO DEPRESS THE CLUTCH WHILE IN NEUTRAL. HAPPENED IN HEAVY TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY AND IN STOP-AND-GO CITY TRAFFIC. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CLAIM TO HAVE RESET THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE. UPON A FEW DAY AFTER RETURN, THE ENGINE CUT OFF WHILE THE CLUTCH WAS DEPRESSED IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF. WHILE DRIVING IN FIRST AND SECOND GEARS, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND ALSO OCCURRED WHILE THE TRANSMISSION WAS NOT IN GEAR WITH THE CLUTCH PEDAL DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 190719047. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE FAILURES WERE RELATED TO NHTSA INVESTIGATION NUMBER: DP19-003. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF. THE CONTACT PURCHASED THE VEHICLE A FEW DAYS AGO. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE STALLED TWICE WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT ACTIVATED THE ECO AND NORMAL MODES, BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE CONTACT ALSO DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO SEE IF THE VEHICLE WOULD START, BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. THE CONTACT HAD TO MANUALLY START THE VEHICLE WITH THE KEY AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE. THE CONTACT CALLED NORM REEVES VOLKSWAGEN SUPERSTORE (20 AUTO CENTER DR, IRVINE, CA 92618, (949) 830-7300) AND WAS INFORMED TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT OR TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 320.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF. WHILE DRIVING FREQUENTLY AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE, THE CLUTCH ENGAGED ON ITS OWN. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED.

PURCHASED 2019 GTI RABBIT EDITION 6MT. SOON AFTER PURCHASE, VEHICLE BEGAN STALLING UNEXPECTEDLY WHEN COMING TO A STOP WHEN CAR IS IN NEUTRAL. HAS HAPPENED WHEN CLUTCH IS EITHER DEPRESSED OR NOT. SOMETIMES CAR HAS STALLED WHEN FULLY STOPPED. IN THIS CASE THE CAR STARTS IDLING ROUGHLY AND SHUDDERS BEFORE STALLING. CAR STARTS UP AGAIN WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. CALL HAS STALLED 6+ TIMES SINCE PURCHASE. CAR HAS ALSO EXHIBITED EXCESSIVE VIBRATION COMING FROM THE ENGINE SINCE PURCHASE. DEALERS HAVE NOT REALLY BEEN HELPFUL; THEY EITHER DENY THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM OR SAY THAT THE WHEELS/TIRES NEED BALANCING, HOWEVER BALANCING AND REPLACING THE TIRES DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. I AM POSITIVE THIS IS RELATED TO THE STALLING ISSUES. ALSO, THE GEAR NUMBER INDICATOR SOMETIMES SHOWS THAT THE CAR IS A A DIFFERENT GEAR THAN WHAT IS CURRENTLY SELECTED (I.E., CAR IS IN 4TH BUT GEAR INDICATOR INCORRECTLY SHOWS THE CAR IS IN 2ND). I HAVE SEEN THAT OTHER OWNERS HAVE THESE SAME EXACT ISSUES WHICH MEANS THAT THESE ARE MANUFACTURING DEFECTS IN THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE CAR COULD STALL AT ANYTIME MAKING IT HARDER TO CONTROL OR STOP, ESPECIALLY IN AN EMERGENCY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT A STOP SIGN, IT STALLED, SHUT OFF, AND THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED.

RESTARTED AGAIN, IT STUMBLED, AND THEN DIED. RESTARTED AGAIN, AND THEN THE LIGHT HAD TURNED SO I GAVE IT THROTTLE TO KEEP IT FROM STALLING AND THEN GOT GOING.

2019 VW GTI RABBIT EDITION 6SPD MANUAL. INTERMITTENTLY, WHEN APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT OR TRAFFIC STOPPING, THE CAR IN NEUTRAL, OR WITH THE CLUTCH FULLY DEPRESSED, THE ENGINE WILL STALL. THE CAR WILL RESTART. SOMETIMES AFTER THIS HAPPENS, THE CAR WILL HAVE A STRANGE EXHAUST SOUND THAT REMINDS ME OF A CAR THAT IS RUNNING ON NOT ALL OF THE CYLINDERS, OR HAS AN AFTERMARKET CAMSHAFT. IF THE CAR IS SHUT OFF FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME AND THEN RESTARTED, THIS EXHAUST SOUND WILL DISAPPEAR. WHEN THE CAR STALLS, ALL POWER STEERING ASSIST CEASES. THIS STALLING ONLY SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHILE STOPPING AND IS RANDOM. SOME DAYS, IT WILL DO IT 4-5 TIMES IN A 11 MILE TRIP AND SOME DAYS, NOT AT ALL.

COMING UP TO A STOP WITH THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL, WHETHER HAVING THE CAR IN NEUTRAL OR USING THE CLUTCH PEDAL, THE VEHICLE WILL STALL. THIS OCCURS IN ANY SCENARIO SUCH AS EXITING A HIGHWAY AND COMING TO A STOP, OR PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE, OR INCHING FORWARD IN TRAFFIC. IT ALWAYS OCCURS IN THE FINAL MOMENTS OF COMING TO A STOP. JULY 23 2019 IS THE FIRST DATE OF OCCURRENCE. SINCE THEN IT HAS OCCURRED RANDOMLY HAPPENING ONCE IN A DAY OR 9 TIMES IN ONE DAY.

CAR IS STALLING AND TRANSMISSION IS NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY. HAVE HAD IN THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES, TOTALING OVER 5 DAYS IN SHOP. 4 DAYS FIRST TIME, AT THE DEALERSHIP TWICE TODAY (JULY 15, 2019) STALL OCCURS AFTER SITTING IN TRAFFIC OR STOP-GO DRIVING. WHEN COMING TO A STOP, WILL SHUTTER AND COME TO A STALL.

AS I AM BRAKING TO A STOP WITH THE CLUTCH FULLY DEPRESSED (AT A RED STOP LIGHT OR TO MAKE A LEFT TURN), THE CAR QUIETLY AND COMPLETELY STALLS OUT AND SHUTS DOWN. THE DASH LIGHTS REMAIN ON. I CAN RESTART THE CAR. THIS SEEMS TO OCCUR RANDOMLY BUT OCCURRED 3 TIMES YESTERDAY AFTERNOON. NO ENGINE CHECK LIGHT.

THE CAR STALLS FREQUENTLY WHEN IDLE AND STOPPED AT LIGHT OR OTHER AND NEEDS TO BE RESTARTED FROM THE PUSH START BUTTON AND ONLY HAS LESS THAN 1000 MILES IF STARTED SOON AFTER BUYING IT AND CALLED DEALER BUT COULD NOT FIND THE GOOD TIME FOR APPT

SUNROOF SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED WITH NO IMPACT WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY

ENGINE STALLS. INTERMITTENT. PROBLEM RELATES TO 2019 GTI (S MODEL) WITH 6-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. WHEN FULLY WARM OR HOT, THE ENGINE RANDOMLY STALLS WITH TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL AND WHEN BRAKING TO A STOP, USUALLY WITH THE CLUTCH DEPRESSED AND USUALLY AT SPEEDS FROM 10-0 MPH. THE ENGINE STALLS ARE GENTLE WITH NO STUTTERING OR SHAKING. EXAMPLE: COMING TO A STOP AT A STOP SIGN OR IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, THE ENGINE QUIETLY DIES WITHOUT WARNING. ENGINE RESTARTS AND RUNS NORMALLY THEREAFTER UNTIL THE NEXT UNEXPECTED STALLING EVENT. VEHICLE PURCHASED NEW IN MAY OF 2019. FIRST STALL AT 250-300 MILES. MOST RECENT STALL ON 6/30/19 AT 1150 MILES. NO "CHECK ENGINE" WARNING APPEARS ON DASHBOARD. NO ERROR CODES SHOW UP VIA OBD-2 DIAGNOSTIC SCAN. 92 OCTANE CHEVRON GAS USED EXCLUSIVELY. OWNER HAS DECADES OF EXPERIENCE DRIVING MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS WITH NO ISSUES UNTIL NOW - DOUBTFUL THIS IS OPERATOR ERROR. VW DEALER IS FRIENDLY, BUT BAFFLED.

THIS IS A 6MT 4 DOOR SE VW GTI 2019 WITH 1500 MILES AND 6 WEEK OF OWNERSHIP. THE VEHICLE RANDOMLY STALLS AT LOW SPEED WHEN BREAKING APPROX 5 MPH OR EVEN WHEN STATIONARY AFTER COMING TO A HALT. HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS IN NEUTRAL OR WHEN THE CLUTCH IS FULLY DEPRESSED. THIS IS NOT A CASE OF WRONG GEAR OR NOT FULLY DEPRESSING THE CLUTCH. IT HAS HAPPENED A COUPLE OF DOZEN TIMES BOTH WITH MYSELF AND MY WIFE DRIVING SO NOT THE DRIVER AT FAULT. HAPPENS WHEN THE ENGINE IS AT TEMPERATURE BUT NOT AT FIRST START UP. THIS ISSUE IS BECOMING DANGEROUS AS RECENTLY IT PUT THE CAR INTO THE PATH OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND PREVIOUSLY NEARLY GETTING REAR ENDED DUE TO SUDDEN STALL. CONSISTENT STALLING AS WE TURN INTO OUR DRIVE WAY - LESS THAN 5 MPH CLUTCH DEPRESSED AND TURNING RIGHT. SOFT STALL - ENGINE JUST CUTS OUT V A ROUGH STALL YOU WOULD EXPECT WHEN TRYING TO PULL AWAY IN THIRD GEAR. MOST RECENT DATE OF OCCURRENCE ENTERED BELOW.

IN SOME SITUATIONS WHEN COMING TO A STOP WITH THE CLUTCH DEPRESSED THE ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF QUIETLY. DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME I COME TO A STOP BUT HAS SEVERAL TIMES.

2019 GOLF GTI SE 6MT PURCHASED WITH 12 MILES. ENGINE RANDOMLY STALLS IN NEUTRAL WHEN ROLLING TO STOP WITH CLUTCH FULLY DISENGAGED AFTER HAVING DOWNSHIFTED TO EITHER SECOND OR FIRST GEAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED (3) TIMES SINCE PICKING UP THE BRAND NEW CAR (4) DAYS AGO. THE ELECTRONIC DISPLAY THAT SHOWS WHICH GEAR YOU ARE IN HAS ALSO REPORTED THE WRONG GEAR ONCE (SO FAR). THIS IS AN ISSUE AFFECTING *MANY* 2019 GOLF GTI OWNERS. HERE ARE SOME NOTES OF THE ISSUE SO FAR: - 6-8-19 @ 1AM (131 MILES) - NO CEL - CLUTCH WAS OUT AND CAR WAS IN NEUTRAL COMING TO STOPLIGHT IN LEFT TURN LANE. GOING LESS THAN 5MPH WHEN CAR DIED. SEEMED LIKE IT HAPPENED WHEN THE TACH WAS AT IDLE-RANGE. RESTARTED WITH BUTTON. - 6-8-19 @ 10:56PM (225 MILES) - NO CEL - PULLING UP TO DRIVEWAY. CAR DIED AT LESS THAN 2MPH GOING UP A VERY SLIGHT HILL WHEN CLUTCH WAS DEPRESSED TO GO INTO FIRST FROM NEUTRAL. WAS GOING *VERY SLOW* WHEN THIS HAPPENED. RESTARTED WITH BUTTON. - 6-9-19 @ 3:30PM (276 MILES) - NO CEL - BROTHER WAS DRIVING WITH ME IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. PULLING UP TO STOP SIGN IN HIS NEIGHBORHOOD AND HE WAS IN NEUTRAL WITH CLUTCH OUT SLOWING TO A STOP AND THE CAR SOFTLY DIED AGAIN. RESTARTED WITH BUTTON. - 6-9-19 @ 11:44PM (418 MILES) - NO CEL - DRIVING UP A STREET IN A NEIGHBORHOOD GOING 20-25MPH IN 2ND GEAR AND THE DISPLAY BETWEEN MY TACH AND SPEEDO SAID I WAS IN 3RD AND SHOULD SHIFT INTO 4TH. WHEN I CRESTED THE HILL AND HIT THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN FOR A PART OF THE STREET THAT WAS DAMAGED, THE GEAR DISPLAYED SWITCHED TO 2ND (WHICH IS WHAT I WAS IN AND HADN'T CHANGED). THESE ISSUES ARE VERY WELL DOCUMENTED BY DRIVERS IN ENTHUSIAST FORUMS SUCH AS REDDIT AND GOLFMK7.COM. YOU CAN ALSO FIND VIDEOS OF THE ISSUE ON YOUTUBE: HTTPS://WWW.REDDIT.COM/R/GOLFGTI/COMMENTS/B9CPB7/POSSIBLE_2019_6MT_STALL_ISSUE_YOUR_FEEDBACK/ HTTPS://WWW.GOLFMK7.COM/FORUMS/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?P=776852#POST776852

BRAND NEW PURCHASED 2 DAYS AGO ON 5/30/19 WITH 24 MILES ON IT. IT'S A 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND WHEN APPROACHING A STOP EITHER IN GEAR WITH CLUTCH DEPRESSED OR IN NEUTRAL, CAR WILL STALL AND NEED TO BE RESTARTED. DANGEROUS, SAFETY IS A CONCERN. IT'S A VERY SUBTLE STALL AND YOU REALLY HAVE TO BE PAYING ATTENTION OR BAD THINGS WILL HAPPEN. HAPPENING MORE OFTEN NOW, VEHICLE NOW HAS 122 MILES AND GOING BACK TO DEALER FOR MORE TESTING. INITIAL TESTING AT DEALER WAS ABLE TO DUPLICATE PROBLEM 1 DAY AFTER PURCHASE. IT'S NOW 2 DAYS OLD! BUILD DATE WAS 3/2019. IT APPEARS TO ME TO BE SLOW SPEED COASTING, CLUTCH NOT ENGAGED IN NEUTRAL TO A STOP OR CLUTCH ENGAGED IN GEAR COASTING TO A STOP.

2019 MANUAL TRANSMISSION GTI'S STALL WHEN COMING TO A STOP IN TRAFFIC.

ENGINE STALLS AS CAR COMES TO A FULL STOP IN NORMAL STREET TRAFFIC: BRAKING WITH TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL, CLUTCH ENGAGED OR DISENGAGED, NEAR-STATIONARY OR FULL-STATIONARY; BRAKING WITH TRANSMISSION IN GEAR AND CLUTCH FULLY DISENGAGED, NEAR-STATIONARY OR FULL-STATIONARY.

VEHICLE WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION, ENGINE STALLS AT LOW SPEEDS IN NEUTRAL. BRAND NEW CAR, ONLY 100 MILES.

WHEN COMING TO A STOP, UNDER 5 MPH. THE CAR STARTS TO DROP RPMS AND THEN IT WILL STALL.

AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FOR 30 OR SO MINUTES ON BOTH CITY AND HIGHWAY STREETS, MY NEW GLI WITH 800 MILES ON THE ODOMETER WILL INTERMITTENTLY STALL WHEN COMING TO A STOP. THIS ENGINE STALL HAPPENS WHEN THE CLUTCH IS TO THE FLOOR AND IN GEAR AND SOMETIMES WITH THE CLUTCH OUT AND IN NEUTRAL. IT IS A VERY GENTLE STALL - NOTHING LIKE THE LURCHING THAT OCCURS DURING A TYPICAL STALL, IN FACT THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WHEN I DIDN'T NOTICE THE ENGINE DIED. AFTER THE OCCURRENCE OF THE FIRST STALL IT USUALLY CONTINUES TO HAPPEN AT EACH SUBSEQUENT STOP FOR THE REST OF THAT PARTICULAR DRIVING TRIP. THE CAR RETURNS TO NORMAL AFTER SITTING FOR ALONG PERIOD OF TIME. THIS ISSUE HAS HAPPENED ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS OVER THE FIRST MONTH OF OWNERSHIP.

I HAVE A WHITE GTI RABBIT WITH A MANUFACTURE DATE OF 10/18. VEHICLE ENGINE STALLS WHEN COMING TO A STOP. THIS OCCURS WITH THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL REGARDLESS OF WHETHER OR NOT THE CLUTCH IS DEPRESSED AND HAPPENS DURING CITY DRIVING. THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED THIS PROBLEM AROUND 3000 MILES AND HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE. IT DOES THIS EVERY SO OFTEN IN AN UNPREDICTABLE MANNER AND AM UNABLE TO REPEAT IT. ALSO NOTICED THAT THE GEAR SELECTOR ON THE DASH ACTS ERRATICALLY WHEN THIS HAPPENS SOMETIMES SHOWING 4-2 OR 4-3 OR 2-3 BEFORE THE STALL OCCURS. NO DASH LIGHTS COME ON. THERE ARE NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS. VEHICLE REQUIRES A RESTART BY PUSHING THE START BUTTON BEFORE DRIVING AGAIN. AM AFRAID THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN DURING FREEWAY DRIVING.

ENGINE SOFT SHUT-OFF WHEN IN NEUTRAL (MANUAL TRANSMISSION) OR WITH THE CLUTCH TO THE FLOOR, WHILE SHIFTING TO NEUTRAL, AND COMING TO A STOP. CITY STREET. THIS OCCURRED 3 SUCCESSIVE TIMES OVER A SHORT, 5 MINUTE TRIP HOME ON CITY STREETS. EVERY DOWNSHIFT, WITH GEAR NEUTRAL OR DISENGAGED, THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF JUST AS OR AFTER COMING TO A STOP. THERE IS NO "STALL SHUDDER" FROM THE ENGINE, AND IT JUST REVS FROM 1K RPM TO 0 WHEN STOPPED OR WHILE STOPPING, IN NEUTRAL. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN WARMED UP TO OPERATING TEMPERATURE. THE DASHBOARD GEAR REPORTER ALSO MISREPORTED THE CURRENT GEAR AT THIS TIME: REPORTED 3RD WHEN IN 2ND, OR 3RD-TO-5TH WHEN IN 3RD. AGAIN AT LOW SPEEDS, AND LOW REVS THAT WOULD NOT BE APPROPRIATE FOR AN UPSHIFT. VEHICLE BOUGHT NEW THIS WEEK, CURRENTLY AT 100 MILES ON THE ODOMETER.

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS SINCE ABOUT APRIL 8,2019 MY NEW GTI STALLED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. WHEN THE CAR STALLS IT DOES SO WITHOUT WARNING. THE STALL OCCURS AS IF THE CAR SIMPLY TURNED OFF. ON A FEW OCCASIONS THE CAR STALLED WHEN I STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN OR WHEN I DROVE ONTO MY DRIVEWAY. TWICE THE CAR STALLED IN BUMPER TO BUMPER TRAFFIC ON I580 NEAR SAN FRANCISCO. BOTH OF THOSE STALLS CAME AT A MOMENT WHEN VEHICLES FOLLOWING ME NEARLY COLLIDED WITH ME BECAUSE TRAFFIC BEGAN TO MOVE BUT MY CAR STALLED AND FOR A MOMENT DID NOT MOVE IN SYNC WITH TRAFFIC. THE STALLING SEEMS TO HAPPEN MORE AS I COME TO A STOP. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY OVER THE LAST FEW DAYS ALSO. I REALIZED THERE IS IN FACT AN ISSUE SO I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT IN 1 WEEK SO THEY CAN HOPEFULLY ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. I WILL NOT BE DRIVING THE CAR UNTIL THE DEALERSHIP CLEARS IT AS SAFE TO OPERATE. THE CAR IS A 2019 VW GTI 6 SPEED MANUAL SHIFT. THE STALLS STARTED WHEN THE CAR HAD ABOUT 400 MILES, TODAY IT STALLED FOR ABOUT THE 8TH OR 9TH TIME AND HAS ABOUT 1125 MILES. I AM VERY EXPERIENCED OPERATING A MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND I KNOW THAT THE STALLING IS A VEHICLE ISSUE AND NOT OPERATOR ERROR.

VEHICLE DIED WHEN STOPPING AT RED LIGHT AT A HIGH TRAFFIC CITY INTERSECTION, CLUTCH WAS ALL THE DOWN. ALSO, DIED TWICE IN REVERSE WHILE PARKING IN DRIVEWAY AT SLOW ROLL WHILE CLUTCH WAS COMPLETELY DEPRESSED.

ENGINE STALLS AT CRAWL SPEEDS/COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP WITH THE CLUTCH PEDAL FULLY DEPRESSED. HAS HAPPENED THRICE SINCE PURCHASE. FIRST EPISODE WITH ODO AT AROUND 100 MILES. SECOND AROUND 350 MILES.LATEST EPISODE 4/16/19 AT 556 MILES. THE STALL IS VERY QUIET LIKE IF THE CAR HAS AN AUTO STOP START FUNCTION AND IS ONLY NOTICED WHEN PUSHING ON THE GAS PEDAL TO GET MOVING AGAIN. HAS NEVER HAPPENED WHEN COASTING IN NEUTRAL WITH THE CLUTCH LET OUT. HAS NOT HAPPENED AT HIGHER SPEEDS BUT HAVE NOT DRIVEN MANY HIGHWAY MILES. STARTS RIGHT UP AGAIN WITH NO TROUBLE ON PUSHING THE STOP/START BUTTON. NO TROUBLE WITH THE GEAR INDICATOR AS SOME OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME MODEL HAVE STATED ON ONLINE FORUMS.

IT'S A 2019 RABBIT EDITION GTI AND THE ENGINE STALLS AT A STOP IN NEUTRAL POSITION AT NORMAL RUNNING TEMPERATURE. MANY OWNERS OF THE GTI RABBIT MK7.5 ARE EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEM AND THERE'S NO WARNING LIGHTS ON THE PANEL THAT INDICATES THE CAR SHOULD BE SERVICE. I HAVE EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM ONLY AFTER A FULL STOP NOT RUNNING!

I PURCHASED A 2019 GOLF GTI RABBIT EDITION (URANO GREY) W/ MANUAL TRANSMISSION ON 2/23/2019. ON 2/27, MY CAR STALLS WHEN I AM STATIONARY ON FLAT TERRAIN, WAITING FOR THE GREEN LIGHT AT THE INTERSECTION, WITH MY CLUTCH ALL THE WAY IN. I RESTARTED THE ENGINE WITHOUT RELEASING THE CLUTCH. THE REVS GOES UP TO 800, STAYS THERE FOR A SECOND, AND THE CAR STALLS AFTERWARDS. I DID ANOTHER TWO RESTARTS AFTER THAT, WHICH GAVE ME THE SAME RESULT. THE WAY I GET OUT OF THIS SITUATION IS TO APPLY A LITTLE THROTTLE WHEN WAITING, RAISING THE REV TO AROUND 1100. THIS ISSUE NEVER OCCURRED AFTERWARDS, BUT I BELIEVE THERE IS A POTENTIAL DEFECT IN POWER TRAIN OR ENGINE.

VEHICLE STALLS WHEN COMING TO A STOP WITH CLUTCH DEPRESSED. GEAR INDICATOR WILL INDICATE WRONG GEAR.

THE CAR COMING SLOWING DOWN TO A STOP WILL SHUT (STALL) OFF AND REQUIRE RESTARTING. SECONDARY ISSUE WHERE THE TRANSMISSION GEAR SELECTION INDICATOR WILL SHOW THE WRONG GEAR SELECTED. HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=56OMNOQSI-C

I HAVE A NEW 2019 VW GOLF GTI RABBIT WITH 500 MILES, I'VE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE CAR STALLING AS I COME TO A STOP. IT'S HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES, ALL WHILE SLOWLY COMING TO A STOP. IT'S QUIET AND DON'T EVEN NOTICE UNTIL I TRY TO ACCELERATE

VEHICLE IS STALLING WHILE COMING UP TO A STOP AT LOW SPEEDS. I FULLY ENGAGE THE CLUTCH AND THEN IT STALLS. IT FEELS MORE OF AN ENGINE SHUTDOWN THAN A STALL; I SAY THIS BECAUSE IT IS A VERY QUIET AND GENTLE SHUTDOWN. YOU CANT EVEN TELL IT HAPPENED UNTIL YOU SEE THE RPM'S DROP TO ZERO.
