Hi folks, I think it may be the airflow meter, as the car is pretty sluggish. My memories of the old VW 1.9 TDI lump is that it isn't bad, especially in 110bhp form.

Any other ideas?

Thanks folks.

The only way to be sure is to plug it in and find out. Anything else is just guesswork.

Although, I had a car brought to me yesterday. Owner swore blind it was the AFM. I scanned it and nothing showed up. Turned out to be a split vacuum pipe on one of the sensors on the bulkhead.

had that on many a sharan, poor running or brakes that run out after one pump.
