Need some advice hopefully someone's been here before.
Just after Xmas. The car cut out no warning whilst driving and would not start, so I changed the fuel pump which made it live again. Although it hates to start now (any weather hot or cold ect). Just recently the car coughed badly and now the breaks are much stiffer to operate since this happened (like the servo is leaking). It smokes when it's been idling for a while as well. Also if you give it some beans you can feel it lag between gear changes. I can't see nothing obvious.
I will check again for codes.
Are these all related or separate issues
It's a 1.8t avj with 170k
Anyone experienced these issues I'd love to here how you solved them
Thanks
