Hi all, I bought a cheap 1.6FSi a few months ago and slowly getting to sort out the issues with it. I found a problem with the car needing higher revs than I expected to pull away, but also below 3000 rpm the engine felt like it was being strangled - it reminded me of a MAF error I had in an old diesel passat.
I got the mechanic to check it over and it came up with an EGR error (not sure what the code was now). Anyway I sourced a used EGR and gave it a good clean out before getting it installed. Once installed and running the adaptation program and removing all fault codes, it ran with no new fault codes logged.
However, the problem is still there. Below 3000rpm the car is sluggish and occasionally misses.. but above 3000rpm its nippy.
No fault codes.
Any ideas or suggestion on what I can try next?
Thanks
