I was driving home the other night and as I went to merge onto the highway I did as I always do in the TDI, floor it and shift. First gear fine, second fine, then into 3rd and all of a sudden when it hit around 3000 RPM it was making VERY LITTLE power. I mean it took me forever to get up to 90km/h. I then did some small tests once I got home on side streets and it seems like half the power as normal.
I do not see any engine lights on. I havent replaced glow plugs in a while (at least 2 years but I did before that whenever the light would come on). I'm honestly not sure what it is.
Is there a way to check if the turbo is working? What RPM range does it normally kick in?
I was curious for some pointers to track it down.
Thank you
