So last night I was driving my 01 Jetta and the check engine light turned on. It is a 1.8t with a manual trans. I noticed that after it turned on when I would floor the car the RPM would like jump pretty high like I was flooring it in neutral before dropping down to where it should have been. I have no idea what the problem is and I am a college student so I would rather not spend so much money for VW to run a diagnostic test or whatever else it is they do so if anyone can help me out that would be great!
