Hi ,im new to all this so please bare with me.
Noticed a power drop in my 150 sport recently so today stopped at my local dealership for advice, they said it was the air monitor/meter and replaced at a cost of 150 big ones.
Car seems better but they said turbo is sticking at low revs and needs replaced soon at cost of £1000. they said this is a common problem with the Bora.

Any comments would be appreciated

That first thing would be the air mass meter, and £150 sounds too much. Around £80-£90 is more realistic. Would be interested in a labour/parts breakdown as its a sinch of a job.

Bad news on the turbo. You can probably get a reconditioned one cheaper from elsewhere, or maybe even a bigger one? ;)
