Title: 2000 gt tdi poor acceleration
Post by: barachello on 21 November 2011, 20:07

Long story short....

I bought the car with a seized engine and blown turbo. In the end, the engine was rebuilt, and a used turbo put on.

The car is now driving fine, but there is a serious lack of boost !

She accelerates slowly in all gears.

Could someone point me in the right direction lol     :cry:

thanks

when the engine was repaired the EML light was on, and when he scanned it, he said that it was showing up that the MAF had been disconnected.

He reset it and it has not come on since.

I will get him to rescan it
