When I bring the car to mechanic they can not find problem or duplicate it, any suggestions? Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Apr 10, 2008, 8:13 PM Post #2 of 3 (3556 views) Re: 2000 VW Passat 4 cyl turbo Sign In Guess: Battery power is low and or alternator output causing borderline fuel pressure and with brake lights on or directionals drops voltage a bit more AND low fuel may cause fuel pump to run warmer and less effective. That's about the only common denominators I can think of??
