passat tdi power problem - cumfray1
Ive been given a 94 M reg Passat 1.9 CL TDi which has a frustrating engine problem I'm hoping someone can help solve. When the car is started & driven it pulls away slowly, getting to 40 takes at least 30 seconds but when I slam it into 1st then straight back out it pulls like it should, that is until i hit an incline steeper than a speed hump & then the speed starts to drop & dropping gear doesnt make a blind bit of difference, when I get to level ground it starts to pull away again normally. What is causing this to happen?? Any help or ideas gratefully received. TIA

I should add that there is no smoke, noise or anything else untoward, it just looses power.
