I drive a '97 Seat Toledo (like a vento / jetta - for pictures of my car see at the bottom of thgis message ) 1.9 TDi 90 Hp tuned up by Oettinger to 125 Hp
. It has about 150.000 km.
This afternoon I removed the two MAF screens near the MAF sensor.
I also have a K&N airfilter.
As You can see there is no connection with the Air intake of the air filter and the exterior off the car.
.
The air intake just takes air from inside the engine-compartiment....
Is this normal ???
The air filter is at the passengers side. At the driver'side two tubes come from the intercooler (i guess) and from the turbo and go down into the frontshield
One of the two tubes goes down to some sort of airbox, wich is placed behind the car's front and wich gets air from the exterior. This air goes again up with the other tube.
The lower air air intake was stuffed with leaves and durt. I removed it and together with the MAF screen removal near the MAF sensor, the car now runs like new with greater response to the pedal and with more torque at low rev's
What is this box for and where the hell is my snow screen ????
