Bora 115 TDi - Intermittent Loss of Power
Discussion
I need some help here - I have an intermittent fault which the garage can't seem to fix and am now getting a tadge hacked off (not with them as they have been great)- any thoughts would be welcome.
When driving along, the turbo seems to cut out and as as a result, a severe lack of power even with the foot to the floor. Turn the engine off anf the fault goes away.......until the next time.
So far, a new air mass meter and some other bits including a new chip have been fitted and the fault is still occuring.
Anyone had the same and got it sorted.

Yup, sounds the same to me - normally in 6th gear in the outside lane of the Motorway but sometimes when you accellerate hard going up a hill.
Going to have a chat with garage if I can get back in time on Friday night - I'm lucky as the original fault occured just before the end of the warranty - the mass meter was a £300 job which I am glad I didnt have to pay for.
The garage have been pretty good but I think its time for the car to go back to VW to be sorted - if not, it's going to have to go which is a shame coz it's a good car which I get 50 plus mpg out of.
