random/temporary loss of power

[stinka]

Only just started happening, like the maf is unplugged... no turbo behaves like a normally aspirated. Pull over, turn off then restart and its fine pulls like a train

what should i be looking at ?

2.7tdi sorry

I know what wrong with that......................Its broken.

Sorry but its late, brain not in gear now. I read someone else had same problem though a few weeks back.

MAF out of tolerance.

Try cleaning, but replacement probably.

I did take that grille thing out of my maf the other day, as i figured it wasn't needed as it creates more resistance, do you think that would have had a negative effect ?

 

[stinka]

google says dont remove it lol ...

hope i didnt chcuk it away

 

[Timbo_1975]

The 'grill' is essentially there to straighten out the airflow and remove the turbulance so that the MAF can get a more accurate reading.

I put maf mesh back on before i came out today, back to normal

Zippy in another thread he stated that he changed the crank position sensor. That seems to have cured his problems.
