Sluggish tdi130 bora 2003

[Mk2_tel]

Basically I have a tdi130 with custom map runs fine and has done for 6months.
This weekend I gave it a oil change and filter
Air filter and diesel filter.
Problem I have is felt fine for 30miles around town but when I went to work this morning
100miles away started playing up.
When sitting at 80mph runs ok hit a slight hill starts running lumpy pushing through that and pulls to 100+
Also getting it playing up at 50-60 in 4th/5th gear.
Had new maf sensor on air box about a year ago and red x cleaner this morning to see if that helps cheers

Are you getting any fault codes?
Also check the vacuum hoses, especially the one inside the ECU as i had the same issue with intermittent power loss especially when on full boost up hills on my 90bhp TDI and replacing the hoses resolved it.

My dad has a vagcom so next time I see him ill plug it in.
And I will check hoses first thing tomorrow thanks for that

[Mk2_tel]

What size diameter are the hoses and how many? Cheers

[thai-wronghorse]

Im not too sure about the PD130 but the majority of the hoses on mine were 3mm ID. Silicone replacement hose on ebay was only about £1.40 ish per metre.

Does it matter if I got 4mm would it affect anything?

when the engine was turned off then on again did it go back to normal? if so itll be the overboost/limp mode thing. what oil did you put in out of interet?

[Mk2_tel]
