my leon 20v/t engine code app
has a odd problem
when i acellerate from below 2000 rpm i feel a dip in my power ,just before my turbo realy starts working


it was much worse before
last week the garage replaced both lambda sensors (original parts)
and my airflow meter (dondt know the english word for it) the part that's stuck right behind ur airfilter


is it normal to feel a dip or do i have a other part thats broken

Your air flow meter is called a MAF (Mass Air Flow meter)
It's not normal to feel a dip in power before turbo spooling up.
Does it only do this when started from cold of does it do this all the time?

You will need to get the car on the VAG diagnostic system called VAG com to see if there are any fault codes.
This could be a coil pack dying as these give missfires when on there way out.
The coil pack is the modern version of the distributer cap

no fault codes there
i have vag-com the only fault he has given where my lambda sensor's they are replaced

could it be as it is only when my turbo starts to realy work that it's my n75 valve?

If you have VAG com you can monitor the N75 valve to see what is doing.
This would be a good starting place and wouldn't cost anything.

Throttle body dying?
You could open this up, clean it with electrical contact cleaner and reseal it then with VAG com do a Throttle body reset to see if that clears your problem.
Other than that check the electrical connections to the TB

whell i tought it was 2000 so they changed my lambda sensors and my maf
started to take a good look at the when and how

and it occurs in higer gears 3rd and up when i let the rpm drop to say 2000 u feel the turbo spool up
and then in the range of 3000 3500 the car just seems to buckle or stutter but it only happens when i dondt give full throttle say abouth 60/70%
