I have got the same problem, no solution yet. Car's got a new knock sensor, recent distributor, the hall sensor wiring has been replaced, PO did lots of work on it trying to fix this but I don't have a list.

What have you tried fixing on yours?

Does anyone else have the same problem? Perhaps we can come up with the solution by eliminating all the stuff everyone's tried.

One thing I've noticed, there's a pretty high incidence of strange, hard-to-diagnose, intermittent problems with 16V A2 cars. Is this the bane of these cars?

Has anyone out there ever figured out the "car runs like crap, switch off,
switch on, car runs great" syndrome.  I've seen a lot of posts on this, but
never a solution.  This problem is driving me F@#$% nuts.
I've replace a lot of shit and I really can't afford $$$ to keep on missing the
target.  Help anyone???
