Just wondering i have a hesitation issue with my golf R (feels like its in limp mode) when slowing down approaching a roundabout then put my foot down to pull away quickly it sometimes just bogs down...i also had this issue with my polo gti. It's very scary when not expecting it...obviously don't happen all the time, but to be similar in both vw performance cars is disappointing.

wtf is 'primary' and 'secondary' 'ride'?
@themilesdriven
@themilesdriven 6 ай бұрын
Primary ride is affected by larger bumps and disturbances on the road and challenges how well the chassis deals with them, secondary is the smaller vibration and harshness that may be noted either in addition to inadequacies in the primary ride or will stand out prominently if a vehicle has a great primary ride but poor secondary and is more to do with small vibrations. In measuring them the primary ride would be about 3hz, whereas secondary upto 25hz. Both affect the confidence in a vehicle chassis and achieving it on a car that has a shell used for everything from a small capacity diesel to an all wheel drive hot hatchback is challenging 👍
