The other thing I thought of was that your battery might be "life expired" - it should show 12v when stationary (engine switched off) and 14v when charging - can you just confirm it does?minxy said:cheers paddy2!
my treg is an automatic, petrol,
Am gonna check the Aif and clean it, ill let u know wot happens !
Don't specifically know where the MAF is located on yours, but rip off the top cover from the engine (it just pops up) then follow the air inlet tube down - probably to the drivers side of the car, so when you're looking at the engine bay, it's probably on the LHS.minxy said:CHEERS MATE CHECKED THE BATTERY IT DOES SHOW 14 V WHEN CHARGING (WHEN ENGINE ON ) ALTHOUGH IT DESNT REGISTERAT ALL WHEN ENGINE IS OFF ! CAN U TELL ME WHERE TO FIND THE MAF ? PLS
I thought it might have been Turbo related too... but no Turbo on the petrol onesnap said:pickd mine up yesterday and light throttle low rpm fine, try to accelreate no go... somthing to do with vaccum pipe & turbo (i think they said) had come loose, diagnostics found it quickly and took em 10 mins to fix so could be something as simple as that.
oops missed that important little detail (wonder how many dealers will make the same mistake..) my old passats and golfs used to have the little air vaccum pipes perishing all the time causing this type of symptom hopefully moved on from that set-up...Paddy2bsure said:I thought it might have been Turbo related too... but no Turbo on the petrol ones![]()
