Struggling for speed...

Featured Replies

My Superb 1.8T is facing problem :mad: . It started with sudden loss of high end power and it is struggling from 3000RPM up to max of 4000 RPM . From 2500-3000 RPM onwards, I can feel some jerkiness in the engine. And the maximum rpm it can go is around 4000 RPM traveling at 150 km/hr. It seems like the car stuck at higher traveling speed from 120km/hr onwards. And the gear change takes long duration.

For slow driving at around 2000 rpm every thing is fine. There was no error codes or any signals appear.

I sent my car to Skoda workshop for VAG scanning and here is the result:

16684 po300 035

Possible ECU fault...a huge shot in the dark but it may be sending out the wrong error codes..this happened on our work car a while back. As it was faulty you could only do slower speeds as it had effectively "tripped" itself out
