Seat Leon TDI Loss of Power - dave1234
I have a 2001 leon tdi (90). Recently i have been experiencing a loss of power when accelerating and the revs are around 3,500. Anyone got any ideas what this could be and how much it will cost to repair?

Most likely the MAF sensor - a well known weak point on VAG engines at anything from 60k miles upwards. Try unplugging it and seeing if the car goes better. ISTR that it's the same item used by Mercedes and is much cheaper from them!
