My Jetta will sputter and sometimes stall when the fuel gage reads below half tank. I have used the mileage counter to see if the gage is not correct, but the level seems true. I would also measure fuel quantity by the amount going in on a refuel. There is no engine light. Again it only happens when fuel level is below half tank. Very Puzzled and wondering if you have any ideas?

Thanks

I apologize for the late response, . I am in the process of moving to a different state am having a hard time. At any rate, have you ever had the fuel pump replaced? The reason I ask is because they may have not installed correctly, and there is a hose loose at the top of the pump, there should be an inspection cover that you can remove either in the trunk or under the back seat, and checked the pump hoses, make sure they are secure.
