    Can anyone help?
    The car starts almost instantly, the problem is when i drive off, i get next to no response from the throttle pedal for the first few hundred yards.
    Its improved if i let it tickover a few minutes before driving off.
    I've changed the airflow meter,coolant sensor,cleaned the EGR valve & checked the glow plugs are working.
    Any suggestions appreciated.

    I also have a TDI 130 on and 04 plate. Bought it OCT 09 from a couple who only used to drive it to the shops and back so it was mint (still is!).
    It has always had that characteristic on start up even when the weather is warm, it's a slight lack of responsiveness. I assumed that this was completely normal!! The car drives fine after the initial few minutes.
