[QUOTE="Bigbear, post: 427822, member: 18461"] Apologies in advance for this, I know some don't like non earlybay related posts but many of you have a vast knowledge of cars, mechanics in general so maybe you can help me? I've recently bought an Audi a3 2l turbo diesel, today I was out and decided to floor it a bit, it pulled lovely up to about 85-90mph then just lost power, it seemed as though the turbo had gone or the car had gone into limp home mode as it was still driving but not accelerating well. After I'd stopped off somewhere then got back in the car it pulled lovely again, so I gave it another kicking and the problem didn't occur, the car is still under warranty but if anyone has any idea what it could be I'd appreciate your suggestions as I don't want the garage to just change the MAF sensor and send me on my way, I've got a feeling it's something more than that, and if like to address the problem before the warrant runs out. Cheers in advance , Brett. [/QUOTE]
