Check out the photo. After a recent trip back from Germany i brimmed the fuel tank and reset the trip meter before leaving Bergen and this is a photo i took when i got back (without re-fuelling). The fuel light had just come on a couple of miles previous as i came off the motorway near my home...
I own a Lhd Toledo Tdi 150 Sport 2001 model and all i can say im well happy with it. It has the 6 speed box,lower suspension, Fr style seats, 6 disc changer but no cruise.Wheels are standard 16's with 205/55's. Mine also has side skirts and boot spoiler but think these were after fits!

On the way home i tried disconnecting maff sensor and found not much difference in performance even a bit more responsive at low revs!
So going to get another maf...
Thanks guys.
Will re-check the boost hoses again. I checked the exhaust today and it looks ok with plenty of flow through the tailpipe. Will have to locate a vag-com me thinks.
The car is actually a Toledo TDI 150 (lhd) from Spain. Ive had it over twelve months now and its never run 100%...
