Title: Mk4 1.8t agu power loss
Post by: yickergti on 27 January 2011, 18:55

Hi all,having a few issues with the above. Seems to drop off the power every now and again and feel real sluggish at times. I have had a quick check round for boost leaks/split hoses etc but cant seem to find anything  :sad: any pointers will be very much appreciated  :wink:
