Was told about your sight from a local VW guy, thought I'd give it a try. I am a foster parent to an orphaned 98 Jetta TDI that has passed from shop to shop over the course of 2yrs. The list of repairs is crazy, but no solution to the problem. In a nutshell, will not rev past 2200 rpm. Runs perfect otherwise. No smoke, no skip, no unusual noises, just no power. Have not scanned for codes yet, but I found your site and felt it would be a great aid to my situation. Not new to diesel, I also have a 92 Dodge with a Cummins thats been modified and an 80 Mercedes 300sdl. I am an ASE master technician (20 years), and am currently a retail mgr. for one of the national parts chains, I have a "man cave" at home were I still do work for others. I worked in a all Mercedes shop doing restorations for 8 years, hence the term "benzteck". Would love to help others if I can, I will post any findings I have when I get a chance to get back to work on the Jetta. Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions and help!
