Hi folks, have a seat toledo tdi which i am using during the week and it doesnt seem to be running as well as it should!

Ive done 80k with it now and it used to be quite nippy. Its been remapped to around 140bhp but these last few weeks it just doesnt feel so fast!

My friend had the same problem in his audi tdi at higher miles and cured it by taking out the cat! Could it be the turbo?

Anyone got any ideas? :blink:

Has the weather been very hot there recently? I know it sounds obvious but turbo'd cars particularly suffer in the heat (not sure about TDi's though).

Is it simply not as fast as it was, or mis-firing, running rough etc?......

Just simply isnt as fast. Doesnt sound different at all. I notice when puling onto the dual carriageway, im not up to speed by the point i used to be up to speed at!

Weather hasnt been to bad either, just doesnt pull as hard!!:search:

Loose turbo hose?
