A3 TDI: Power Loss on Hills (ALH Engine)

Hi,

'When I'm driving uphill in 5th gear under full load for an extended period, the power occasionally cuts out suddenly. This happens abruptly, and it's difficult to maintain speed.'
Sure, my first thought is: Mass Air Flow sensor (MAF sensor).
However, it has already been replaced, although the new one might also be broken (that has happened before).

But now, the phenomenon: I briefly turn off the ignition, restart, and the power is back. Could this be related to the mass airflow sensor, or does anyone have another idea? If the error occurs again, I'll need to have the error codes read.

Thank you for your suggestions.
Janosch.

Hello Janosch74,

Search for 'Notlauf' within this forum.

Hi.

It would have been helpful if you had read the error memory _first_.

Because there will definitely be a "00575" included in that.

And so that you understand how to continue searching (both here in the forum and on the car).
