I've had the problem for a while, and replaced the mass airflow meter with a reman from the parts house (both were Pierburg), and had the intake cleaned, and all the rubber air hoses replaced, but it still won't rev past 2500, and its quite slow to get there. My local shop ran out of ideas (no codes, clean manifold, etc.), said the turbo was boosting, a bit, then pressure levels off. I can hear it spool up a bit too. So I took it to VW dealer. Their diagnosis was bad air flow meter, but of course they did not have one. Dealer says it runs better with Mass flow meter unplugged.
On top of that, I'm taking a trip this weekend, so I need to do something real soon. Please advise.--george
