Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My 2006 passat 3.6 has problems when pressing gas pedal.. vehicle seems to have a delay when pushing peddle.. you can push pedal down 1/4 way before vehicle even jumps rpm's.. vehicle will then just jump forward.. this has caused me to almost get into 3 or 4 accidents because i have pulled out and car just sits there then will just take off.. vehicle was at dealership and had update done but this didn't help my problem.. update caused me to now have same problem but also have shifting problem.. *jb
