Is anybody else experiencing this?
I have a 2017 Golf, 5 speed, 1.8T, and I find as I try to hold a very light throttle position in a low gear (I only observe this in gears 1-3, though it might be too weak to feel in 4/5th gears) I get a strong bucking. I find this happens at what feels like 5-10% throttle, not completely off the accelerator but very light pressure. It feels like something snapping open/shut in the intake - maybe a diverter valve or something? It is at about a 2-3 second frequency.
This annoys the crap out of me because it happens at exactly the throttle position needed to hold constant speed in first or second gear on flat ground. I've tried wedging my foot against the center of the car to ensure that I am not allowing my foot to move at all when this is happening.
