   I have a 106 GTi that splutters and hesitates under acceleration at low revs. I have so far changed the spark plugs, fuel filter and lambda sensor. The car seems to have gained back some power and drives better but it still splutters at low revs. Could this be coilpack? Injectors? I have also put a full tank of fuel with redex in to try and clean it out a bit. Anyone got other suggestions to what is causing the car to do this will be appreciated.
   
   Cheers

   Could be coilpack or the map sensor mate.

   I did also take off the throttlebody and clean out the dirt from that and the sensors. Would the map sensor likely to be knackered?
