I'm about to have a GooglefestT to see if there's an easy cure for that... Like almost every other VAG TDI that performs poorly, it'll probably just need a new AFM - don't be tempted with a cheap pattern one off eBay, get a Bosch original. What is it with those Bosch AFMs? Is it hot film/wire or flapper? All the bosch or bosch licensed/copied flapper models I've had have been fine with a cumulative 500k miles roughtly between them. But I always hear about the AFM problems. |

Mah, a 5,000 oil change interval is too long for California, it's more like
2,000 miles, perhaps 3,000 miles.
But you're right, I should have written "arse," heh.
