I was driving my VW Gold mk7 TDI 1.6 Bluemotion last Sunday, when whilst driving on my second gear something went off and all the power of the engine stood at a slow limit, in which my first and second gear could not reach even 40 Km/h. I towed it and went to the mechanic and whilst driving it a bit to put in the garage, ( since it could drive but at a really slow pace it's like it shifted to idle drive ) white smoke really stinky was coming out of the silencer.
Mind you - No errors on dashboard, just the VW Golf Mk7 glow plugs warning light was going on and off at the beginning and it never showed again on the dashboard.
I am really worried cause its almost new and the mechanic is still checking what is wrong with it.. Any comments please????

This is now the second time the MAF on my 2013 VW Golf R has gone bad. At $185 a pop for a new one this is getting old. had the car since 2013, and this is the second MAF in the last 2 years.last one went last year around this same time of year. i come to find out that this is a know (issue10-15years) that they haven't fixed yet.....sure would be nice if they would.
