Sounds like you're dropping into limp mode.

Most common reason on the 2000's is a bad MAF.

Find someone near you that has a VAG tool, and scan for codes - you probably have some lean codes.

Re: Sounds like you're dropping into limp mode.

I do have a vag tool, I have been told to look for the a/f or lambda ratio (block 031) but I do not have a check engine light come on , I will scan it tonigh and see if I have any code when it does it, or is there an other block I should measure BTW we have the exact same baby blue same option and colors,,
