I have a 2002 Jetta TDI, that I drive daily 100 miles with about a quarter at 55MPH, and the rest stop and go. The car has 245K on it and gets regular Rotella synthetic oil changes. Recently, I have been experiencing loss of power when accelerating above 2000 RPM. Power just goes flat like its starving for fuel or air. Checked all the usual air snow screen, new air filter, new fuel filter, pulled a vacuum on fuel line from tank looking for bubbles, everything's OK. Check vacuum lines, EGR activator all OK. Just noticed today, that if I run up the RPM (in Neutral standing still), I notice the engine starts to sputter or miss at about 2000RPM. I assume its related to problem. Could I have a exhaust restriction? Any help would be appreciated
