big matt Posted July 5, 2009 Report Posted July 5, 2009 Hi all my 2006 tdi 140 alhambra, drives well if you give it a foot full, but when you accerate gently it hunts/surges whilst still accerating, any ideas anyone. matt Quote

big matt Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Posted July 6, 2009 Maybe a dicky connector on the injector loom. Any smoke?Hi, no, no smoke it doesn't miss or anything! all it does is it feels like your putting your foot half way down then off again, then half way down then off again as the revs are picking up, i was thinking could it be MAFF? i have a spare one albeit its off a 1.9 115 engine, anyone know if they are the same sensor the body is a different size but the actual sensor unscrews.(it does seem to lack a bit off power on initial pull off compared to the old 115)!!!!!?????cheers matt Quote
seatkid Posted July 6, 2009 Report Posted July 6, 2009 Might be throttle postion sensor (accelerator pedal) Quote
big matt Posted July 6, 2009 Author Report Posted July 6, 2009 Might be throttle postion sensor (accelerator pedal)that had crossed my mined, but if that was playing up wouldn't it play up all the time in different postions? not that sure how they work! (i always think of them working like a fuel sender gauge). i've tried to read the live data on the TPS but my mate snap on kit wasn't that instant although it did open and close fully but took about 5 secs to move on his screen i might price one up! it might be worth a try!!!!!!! cheers matt Quote
