  1. Hesitation on Remapped Ibiza FR TDI

    before the remap it used to happen once in a while but not that bad, since remap it is worse. at approx 1700 rpm the car hesitates then goes then hesitates again then goes its always near when the turbo should come in. if i hold the throttle at 1750rpm ish in 3rd then i press it slightly...
  2. Hesitation Blues...

    I drive an 02 Cupra 20V T - had it for 3 years now, great car. It has developed a slight hesitation problem - I've searched the forum and read about MAF sensor and DV problems, but haven't seen my symptoms mentioned. Problem shows up most at roundabouts - approach slowing down with...

    Light Throttle Hesitation Theory - *Technical Input Please*

    Hi all. Since buying my LC in March, it has always had a hesitation in power when at light trottle. Hot or cold, what ever gear but more noticable at low revs and always when there is little or no boost. I have searched on here and a lot of people seem to have had the same issue...

    Strange hesitation

    I was at traffic lights today just before a sliproad onto the M62 when a early Lotus Esprit pulled up alongside. Just for fun I decided to have a go and didn't do too badly, but on my up-shift to 3rd there was at least a second hesitation between me hitting the throttle and it doing something...

    weird power hesitation

    Right, I was just nipping out for some lunch and on the way back I was sitting at the traffic lights on a dual carriageway and I pulled away pretty hard (nothing to do with the crappy focus that wanted to race me). I got through first gear and in second I got to 4000rpm and then no more. It...

    hesitation on low revs

    I'm sure this has been mentioned before but cant remember. I usually get this when the engine is cold when accelerating slowly in 1st or 2nd the car gets to just under 2k and seems to loose power / reduce acceleration. My foot is at the same location on the throttle. if i give it some...

    Slight hesitation on boost

    Since getting Revo a few weeks ago, sometimes while accelerating when the car hits 4k RPM in 4th or 5th it backs off the boost for a few seconds. The car gets louder and accelerates fine after that (its almost as if the speedo and rev counter are trying to catch up with the car). Ive found its a...

    Full tank cause hesitation?

    Right. I've had intermittant problems with pinking and hesitation under acceleration for a little while now. First I put down to a dodgy tank of fuel, but it's happened on and off several times now. A few months back King's SEAT, Sidcup looked at it for two days after it had hesitated badly -...

  12. Slight hesitation and then it runs perfectly

    I've got this annoying problem/issue with the car and it does it in APR performance mode and also in standard mode but less noticable in standard. If you in say 2nd gear, prowling around 2.5-3k rpm and then floor it it goes, hesitates slightly and then rockets off and pulls all the way to...

    Turbo, cut out / hesitation problem

    Hi folks, I have been reading about the problems some of you are having with your Ibiza turbos having big hesitations. Some of the posts were suggesting throttle position sensor problems. Was this ever proved ? I am soon to get mine chipped, still deciding who to go for, but was reading CCC...
