Scirocco Central

Hi. Recently I noticed that my car has more turbo lag then it had before. It could be just me but I think it's true. Anyone could advise me on what to do to know if it really lags more or if it's just on my head? Thank's in advance and sorry for my english.

Take it to your dealer and let them have a look if your that concerned

I wonder if you have swapped to 95 Ron fuel from any higher?

What's the ambient temperature? Heat kills power on turbo'd cars so if you're going through a heat wave it could be sapping the power.
R's over here in the UAE actually have a different map to lower the power output to cope with the heat, it's summer here now so a standard day is between 46'C and 52'C ! That sort of heat really kills power, my drive into work at 6am with ambient temps of 32'C feels a MUCH quicker car than my drive home at 1pm when it's high 40's.

Agree with James, But how you are dealing with the dust ? , every month i have to clean the engine bay cause of dust. it is like a desert inside the car bonet

Here the temperatures are around 31°C so it's not that hot and there's almost no dust in the air here. I swapped to 95 ron fuel on last refuel but now I'm running 98 again. This morning the car seemed to react quicker so maybe it's the temperature. Recently I had to remove my forge bov and install the oem valve. I looked for boost leaks but the bolts are all thightened. I just noticed that there is some oil on the plastic hose (don't know the name but forge calls it as breather). Is that normal? Because I don't remember seeing any oil on that hose the first time that I installed the bov.

Does it sound different?
