Flat Eos acceleration
I have a Volkswagen Eos 1.4 160 BHP 2009. Have persistent flat spot on takeoff, VW acknowledge it is there but have not come up with a modification. Have you had similar complaints?

Yes. There is a fuelling problem with this engine that leads to bore washout and piston damage. VW is naturally tryng to keep it quiet.

Goes and handles well with space for four adults. Decent luggage trunk top up and fresh air top down.
