1999 vw passat 4 cyl. The car and engine are shaking like it's going to stall out even while in neutral. Has weak power like it's not getting enough gas. Check engine light is blinking. No odd smells or sounds
You have a bad coil pack, they usually crack from age and heat. It's best to replace them all. Check for a VW recall on this item.
How can 384 people view this but not leave a rating....WTF
My car has the same problem, my coil packs are in good shape (working properly) i've changed my 4 plugs cuz I had one burned and wet with gas :S my mechanic said that it should get better after the wet gas under the new plug goes away, what do you think it is? I'll wait couple of days anyways...

It could be your spark plugs or your egr valve. the best thing to do is use the OBD2 scanner to tell u whats really wronge with the car, you could rent one at an autozone
The OBD2 plugs in underneath the steering wheel area
