Any ideas? Revs don't rise so I don't think it's a slippy clutch. Could this be a sign of a head gasket issue?
Cheers,

Owned the 6 for a good few months now, and this has happened maybe 3 or 4 times. Driving along, and suddenly lose power for a split second. Not really sure what it is - i've changed the fuel filter, topped up the coolant and it happened again yesterday.Any ideas? Revs don't rise so I don't think it's a slippy clutch. Could this be a sign of a head gasket issue? Cheers, Al |

Is there less power in these moments or does it cut out completely? Does it jolt? |
