Recently (suddenly or ... unexpectedly only until I turned the key on doing inspection and heard her engine sound, I sold my heart) being a new owner of a Td5 2001 Auto with only 129k kms on clock with like new condition in/out, I was surprised and tired with her (
my little boy calls the car "him" because he said it looks a bit of handsome, but I like to call "her" because I want to stick with a "woman" but not a "man") very funny flat spot between 2200 - 2500 rev and poor performance on hills. Tried to clean the oily harness, clean the MAP, clean the MAF without success. Although unplugged MAF sensor would reduce the performance which already was poor => so it seems the MAF sensor still working at some degree.
Until tonight, just fitted a new MAF sensor (well, I purchased the MAF sensor on eBay which they indicated to be used for either BMW and Landrover or even Hyundai and Ford for just 1/4 price of the same aftermarket MAF sensor from a well-known local auto shop that I always thought they were very good and low price, ouch!).
OMG, she is back. The performance is way better without the disappointed flat spot between 2200-2500 revs, the power is really good in the whole range of revs as what I can feel, and I am very pleased to drive her like a "little" racing car tonight around Sydney.
Can't wait to try some new remap/chips/tuning box.
