Hi guys, a few of you might remember me from my original thread where i was asking about which EGR i should get. Since then i've been asking around a lurking on the forum often...
So after i removed the EGR, clean Maf and Map sensors, and a few other tweaks, the guy at the garage thought he noticed the wate gate sticking...a good few doses of wd40 and it was all sorted...and now it pulls like a train, especially when the turbo kicks in, the power surge is phenomenal...
I still have a nagging problem/feeling though. It feels like after a few minutes of fun driving, as soon as the engine has warmed, it no longer feels as snappy. When the engine is cold, on 2nd gear as soon as the turbo kicks in, the surge is felt. When the engine is warm, the power comes slowly on 2nd gear. There is no surge the way there is when the engine is cold. The engine is much down on power, it just lacks its snappy feel.
Am i just paranoid or is this possible? Maybe some kind of thermal protection or something like that? Or is this completely normal? Engine isnt remapped.
