Hello:
First of all, I would like to thank you for your reply to my previous
message, even though it was ridiculously simple. It was, in effect,
nothing more than the dimmer switch.
I would like to ask you about a different problem, however. My car is
an Audi 100 with a 2.5 liter turbo diesel that some time ago broke the
timng belt and thus bent some of the valves. This has been fixed.
The problem I now have is that when I accelerate slowly (at highway speeds)
sometimes the motor lacks power, possibly the turbo isn't kicking in.
When this happens I disengage the clutch, let the RPM's drop to 1000 and
then floor the accelerator and this usually causes the power to return.
I was told by the dealer's mechanic that this problem could be caused by a
clogged fuel filter. So, I changed it but the problem continues. Perhaps,
you can tell me if you can think of some other cause for this problem.
This time I have had this letter translated from spanish so there would be
no problems with understanding the text.
Thank you very much, and please recieve my warmest salutation.
