1998 audi a4 1.8t has lost take off acceleration,also does not seem to accelerate like it should at highway speeds. no warning lights, idles smooth. could this turbo problem?
similar problem, audi a3 2002 1.8 - idle rate fluctuates and the engine loses power when I accelerate. fuel filter change at last service (6 months) and I've checked all the fuses relating to engine control... any ideas
Coil packs and coil wiring harness are very temperamental on the audis check coil pack wiring harness for cracks and also check for vacum leaks ,and maf sensor
Have you tried cleaning out the throttle body as i had a similar problem and this worked
Hi there DJ
The throttle body is situated underneath the plastic cover at the top front.
its only 4 allen key style bolts,you will need to disconnect the plug that sits on it, once you have taken it off use carb cleaner and make sure you open the flap and clean it propely.
Hopefully fingers crossed this will do the trick
Dj forgot to mention throttle body situated above exhaust manifold
