Major Part of the Heart and Soul of AULRO
SubscriberThe ute 300Tdi suddenly seems to be performing sub-optimally.
Accelerations is poor, and foot to the floor it takes a long time to get up to 100kph at which point it tops out - used to go a little bit quicker than that !
Anyone have any ideas as to what this could be / where I should start looking?
Could it be the accelerator cable?
Turbo hoses? (Although the top one is silicon. I assume the others are but didn't crawl under the ute to check in my office clothes).
Turbo?
Engine?
Please help. I hope to god this is an inexpensive fix because the wife is OVER it !
It's not broken. It's "Carbon Neutral".

Sounds like throttle cable.
To be sure take note of how far you have to move the pedal before anything happens. If its more than 1/4 of the pedal travel there is your culprit.
Or just look in the engine bay if there is a lot of slack in the cable it is fairly easy to see.

If you don't have a boost gauge, see if you can get hold of one and check the boost on the turbo - mine normally peaks around 15-16psi

SubscriberOK well the throttle works from the start so prob not the cable. Seems to rev ok in neutral just not under load.

stuck wastegate or blockage between the tank and the IP most typically the sedimentor or the filter, sometimes the pickup from the tank.
Once Ive seen it from a blocked tank vent

SubscriberDave - presume you mean fuel tank. IP?
It didn't seem as bad this morning (though still there) so perhaps the fact this may be variable does point to a fuelling issue.
How would I check the waste gate?
