I have a Audi100/A6 1993 2,5TDI 5 cylinder straight 6 Speed box.
The problem is that it starts choking at 400rpm. higher range needed for towing ease. Can some one help in curing this problem. Could it be filters or turbo?

Have'nt a clue what you mean.
400 or 4000rpm?
Choking? power dies or miss fire?
If you want help you need to explain the problem a little better ;-)

Sorry, new to this, the power is dying, & surging, at 4000rpm
|
Isn't this at, or near, rev limiter territory on a standard tune diesel?
|
|
It may be, but it has only recently started doing it, I used to be able to go all the way to 5000rpm with no problem!!!

When did you last change the fuel filter? What mileage is it on?

There's very little point reving a standard diesel that hard as the power range is more like 2 - 4K RPM
Fuel filter, air filter, pump timing, MAF, TCS,EGR
If the filters have'nt been changed recently, I'd change those. Then get the car fault code read and get the timing checked. Changing parts on presumption is expensive and not the best way to find the problem cost effectively
