I think (hope) the Bosch part # is: 09.28.400.357
Good luck.
The path I was going to walk if I need to replace my Bosch is to get a Pierburg and a mafam box from Ron, both together will cost less as one Bosch plus that further Pierburg ones will cost a fraction from there on.
As far as I know the prices are:
Bosch maf 225 Euro + VAT
Pierburg maf 75 Euro + VAT
Mafam75p 86 Euro all included. (postal charges UK --> Belgium inc. as well).
I take um out once a year ta check,put on anti seize, but 1st time had ta soak in penatratin fer a week before i could dare ta move em. . .mondo said:Willo!

One of 2 things usually cause this,the first is the vacuum solenoid actuator for the variable nozzle turbo,(Suzyg- it does not have a wastegate like an "ordinary" turbo - it varies the amount of boost by a set of vanes altering the angle that the air passes through the turbo)
The second is that the linkage in the turbo housing jams up - usually in the max boost position.
Both end up with the engine ecu seeing an overboost situation and shutting down the fuel pressure in the oulet of the high pressure pump,limiting output until you come off the throttle for a couple of secs.From memory the solenoid is Stc4189,and is about £35 +vat.
