Golf 150 TDi NO GTi
« on: 01 June 2004, 17:32 »
Please can any one help me with a problem regarding a Golf PD 15O
(chipped). Long story...but for a car with 190 bhp its just does not
deliver the goods!. It went into main dealers for new air filter and a
replacement clutch master cylinder and came out a new car, felt like a
fighter plane.......after 2 to 3 weeks back to normal. Please any ideas,
when the cars goes well its a joy to drive, when 'normal' its pants! ???

Carbon build up possibly and VW never tell us after the service they have done it. Same thing happened to my 150 TDi
Current - MK1 Campaign
MK4 Diesel GTi 150
Mk4 Polo 16v
Mk1 1500 GL
Previous - 1963 Bug, 1972 Camper, Mk2 Driver, Mk2 rust bucket

it could be a number of things..........

an intermitant fault, turbo or injection problem.....

or it could just be carboned up!!!!!!

in which case try some diesel fuel injection cleaner......
like redex diesel treatment or for something really strong try slick 50 fuel system treatment!!!!
