Car goes fast when it wants to? PLEASE READ
Sometimes (like only when I first start it after sitting all night) when I give it 100% throttle my car takes off. Other times it barley moves. My boost gauge shows a spike and hold at 20PSI. When I'm driving at 40mph in 4gear if I barely press the gas and get my boost guage to hold at 0psi then give at 100% throttle it takes off. But if I was in 4th gear and gave it 100% throttle it shows the same boost but barly moves. And off the line it sucks im like 0-60 8secconds. The only time I can feel power is if a prep it by holding the boost at 0psi for a sec then flooring it. If I just floor it, it doesnt move. Almost feels like the car is getting too much fuel and drowning itself.
NE ideas? its been happening for awhile. No check engine lights. FYI I have VAGCOM.
I'm sick of my friends 01 tt 180 kicking my ***
I have checked the MAF and cleaned it.
Checked all the vacum lines I can find ne leaks.
I'm taking it to the dealership Tuesday. I just dont want them to tell me "well thats what it should do" I took it there once before and thats what they said. So I said " so your telling me my friends 180Hp tt is faster then the 225Hp TT?" Cuz I used to be beat him always.

Re: Sounds like you're hitting limp...
I cleaned it with rubbing alcohol. Pouring it on it. The MAF is less then 5 months old. I checked the MAF via VAGCOM like a two months ago I believe I was getting 160/g or something like that. Its never gave me a engine light and when I plug in VAGCOM and run a check it doesnt find ne thing. I will check block 32 later today and get back with u thanks.

Those numbers are OK....>
but check 32 anyway. Don't need the even run the car to do that, just get the 2 numbers.
Look for something else like a temp sensor..
Also what DV? sounds like it could be sticking if a Piston style.
