Good Evening guys
Im driving a 2005 1.9 Polo TDI. When driving and picking up to about 60 to 80km it drives ok but after that it looses power and climbs hills very sluggish. After putting the ignition off and restarting power is back back becomes sluggish again and on the straight I can do about 120km.

Re: Loosing power
Limp home mode. Either a low or too high boost issue. Scan with tool like vcds and see whatbit logged as faults. Attend to those.
