Why is my Volkswagen transmission bucking when in gear and clutch already released. Why is it stalling mid drive as well? My car will stall while driving, and when stopped. It seems to "power down" also while driving. This morning it started but then stalled several times, then when driving it bucked like mad, while in gear and clutch released. the only code showing was for the air injection cylinder valve ( which I'm told is for emissions only really and minor ) .

It sounds like the air intake tube might be loose causing the problem you are describing.
