So I have a 2005.5 TDI 1.5 malone tune. I got an emissions workshop warning and brought it to autozone, with a code of p0404.

I have been having sluggish exceleration at 2000-3000 rpm. Resulting in turning the car off and on again to reset. It became even more common last week, when I discovered the lower inter cooler hose had a hole in it. I replaced the inter-cooler hose but the sluggish response is back :-(. 114k, with a new fuel filter, castrol edge oil changes at the dealer, and a timing belt changed at 80k. Everywhere I search I get all kinds of reasons for this. Can anyone point me to a thread on this? I don't mean to be redundant if this topic has been discussed. Thanks for your help on this everyone.

It's whatever the dealer puts in for tdi's. The viscosity of the oil has been correct since new.
