As above, it pulls like chuff up to 3k rpm then after that it seems to struggle.

It's a 2001 1.9 JTD.

Just had all the filters changed including fuel.

It has 20k on the clock

And no I don't want a remap ;)

no real experience of oil burners as the ones i have drivin have been clapped out.thought you had peak power by 3000 on ,so used to torque to pull ,no

setve? ;)
 
This could be a MAF sensor problem, but I'm not sure if they changed the sensor after the early ones. you can disconnect it (well you could on the bravo's anyway) to see if it goes better without it (but dont bother with this test if the engine light comes on). It shouldnt really be a problem on a car with low miles like this though. Any engine light on or anything ?

:yeahthat:
 
You were right boys and girls (y)

Disconnect the MAF sensor and it's off like chuff :slayer:

Will it harm the car to leave it disconnected or should I fit a new one?

Any ideas on price, being a Yorkshire man I am rather tight in the money department :D

Cheers
