Folx,
Up on all the maintenance , including air filter.
Noticed today that I seem to have some kind of air starvation issue going: everything is fine till I try to accelerate and place the engine over 2K RPM. For example, I am in 6th gear, around 55mph. Trying to accelerate to 60 would produce that wooshing/sucking air and it would take forever to accelerate.
I start hearing loud air sucking/wooshing noises coming from under the hood somewhere and there's pronounced loss of power. As if engine is struggling for air and cant get due to some kind of restriction.
I dont hear any signs of turbo troubles nor is there the CEL light.
I looked for any obvious restrictions in the air path and couldn't find any - will look more when it gets brighter.
