nkosibob Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 I have w reg Passat tdi 115ph PD-----runs really well in the low rpm range----but on the motorway around (75mph+) when I want to overtake there is an obvious lack of power---put my foot down and nothing, the car does start to build up speed but much too slowly, also I always had a little bit if turbo lag---would this be associated with the power problem??----car has 130000k on the clock, regularly serviced. Any help would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mook Posted September 16, 2005 Report Share Posted September 16, 2005 Welcome to Tyresmoke This is more than likely the MAF sensor (Air Mass Meter). £75 from your local VW dealer plus a £25 refundable deposit when you take your old one back. If you do a search on the Passat forum for "MAF", you'll find a lot of people with this problem and replacing the MAF sensor fixes it. HTH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
