| Description of the problem | Upon completion of modifications due to volkswagen/audi/porsche 3. 0l diesel emissions settlement program the vehicle has an intermittent delay when accelerating. This delay is unpredictable and can be several seconds in duration. Once acceleration is applied it is too much power and again unpredictable in results. Appears to be related to outside temperature. Over 80(f) is when most troublesome. When crossing intersections and accelerating to get on the highway is when the safety aspect is obvious. Porsche has stated this is a normal aftereffect from the modification and my vehicle is working within the parameters set forth by the carb agreement. |
