Hello,
'On my Alhambra TDI PD 115 hp AUY model, manufactured in 2001 and with 55,000 km mileage, and which has not been modified, I have noticed a loss of power.'
Here's how acceleration in 3rd gear works:
1000-1500, as before, I think.
Between 1500 and 1850, the performance was more restrained, but you could still feel the powerful engine kicking in – although it felt somewhat less responsive than before the power loss.
1850-2200: Good airflow - then likely a reduction in fuel injection, resulting in only moderate acceleration up to 3500 RPM, and almost no acceleration beyond that.
Maximum speed after approximately 1.5 km - with the engine running at 3500 RPM, the speed was only 145 km/h (previously around 180 km/h).
My current suspicion was a faulty pressure sensor, a disconnected hose, or a broken magnetic switch - but everything seems to be working, so it's probably the mass airflow sensor (MAF).
Unfortunately, I don't have an adapter yet to use VAG-Com - my notebook only has USB

.
Since a faulty MAF sensor can only be suspected, I decided to try the relatively inexpensive one from DC (because you apparently need a new one eventually anyway).
Does anyone have any other ideas about what the problem might be?
Which DC LMM can I use for the AUY?
Thank you very much!
Greetings,
Happy-Phantom.
