Hello All, Back again poor old galaxy still suffering from power loss, have tried different MAF with no avail, now i think i need to check all vacuum pipes to the turbo and also operation of turbo vanes. Only problem is i cant seem to find where the turbo or pipes are i suspect they must be tucked behind and below the engine as looking from bonnet open, does this mean i need to get it on a ramp and look from underneath? :unsure: I s there any picture guides out ther which might illustrate this?

I have tried a new MAF unit = No GOOD still no power. Will try and check hoses and turbo waste gate operation next which will be fun as i cant even locate them, they must be tucked behind engine somewhere !

I have just tried un reg version of VAG-COM which is showing 17965 Overpressure & 17552 MAF error does anyone know if this sheds any light ?

Will try the local VW dealer, after looking through various posts i have come up with a some questions, Haynes don't do manual for my model so i am a bit thick on subject, i wounder if anyone can point me in right direction ? What is a PD power unit and how do i tell if mine is one ? Should i be using synthetic oil to protect the turbo and avoid the dreaded coking ? Is there any other type of service manual for 2002 galaxy Haynes don't do one) ? Thanks All :huh:

Hello All, hope some may be able to help i have a 2002 galaxy 1.9 TDi which has recently lost all power in the top end, it will drive around town and small back roads ok but on the motorway or up any sort of incline it struggles to get to 55mph and takes a long time to get to that. After searching various forums such as this it seems the most likely cu;prits are 1. MAF sensor or 2. Turbo waste gate/vanes coked. I have had the car serviced and it had new air ,oil & fuel filters, i have tried running car with MAF unplugged but this seemed to make no difference, i think replacing MAF is next step but they are at least
