Mk4 Golf tdi fuel/power problem

[macey_j2]

A couple of days ago, my fuel light came on so i immediately went to fuel up, travelling no more than 4 miles to do so. I put £10 worth of diesel in, the fuel gauge duely responded to rise clearly from the red, but the fuel light stayed on! Two days later and the light is still on, and the power is noticeably worse than it should be. When i put my foot down, there is a very slight pause, and it revs, but not as quickly as it should. Additionally, the turbo doesnt feel as powerful when it kicks in.

Im guesssing theres a problem with the fuel pump but my knowledge is sadly limited,so any advice or experience of this would be great. Thanks, Joe.

Little strange. Poor fuel economy and loss of power can be caused by a faulty maf. Can unplug it and see if the power improves.
