I would also love to see the cossy engine and general condition of the car.
I Loved the 190 2.5 cossy (needs deep pocket to maintain)

oxygen sensors? leaking exhausts? pipe in place of catalytic converter? have you run a scan?

Either the injector or the engine is bad
If the injector is the one with switch change it to Manual type

Have you noticed a change in fuel consumption or it has been that way since you started using the car?
This question might sound silly, but it is pertinent to ask.

Naturally, your car engine is a fuel guzzler but your driving pattern could have an impact as well.

That said, you might still consult a good mechanical for a tune-up.

Does it make him a lesser human if he decides to use a 190 2.6?

How helpful has your contribution been to his issue? Have you assisted or derided him?

If we all follow your theory, it implies everyone should be driving a 2016 model vehicle 'in this day and age'.

You are too silly for this statement... im damn sure you dont have a car. Whats wrong with driving an old car? In europe folks drive cars made as far back as the 40s with people turning heads to have a second glimpse of it.. You and many others need to change the mentality you have and its not just on cars but in general

Off topic.

He's asking about a 190e and not a Jetta.

I drive an 09 Jetta and have had 190e's

I'll trade my Jetta for a well sorted 190e any day any time.

[color=Blue]Because the thread starter's engine:

Has too many cylinders.
Doesn't have enough valves.
Doesn't have enough power.
