170bhp 2.0 tdi - loss in power.

(1/2) > >>

zet:
Hi all,

as the title suggests I'm experiencing a loss in power.  However, no lights/warning on the dash are on.  It is most noticeable in gear 1 and 2 (taking longer and higher revs to reach faster speeds).

any ideas?

PDT:
faulty throttle body, EGR sticking, need to log it and do some output tests really.

vRS_Pagey:
Could it be the injectors?  I've heard they are prone to problems.

GazB:
guy I work with had faulty injectors on his 170 - replaced on warranty by VW

vRS_Pagey:
If it is the injectors, it may be worth having a read through this -
