Hallo, ich habe folgendes Problem (ABH-Motor, Bj 92, 119000 km, Inspektion vor 500 km, alles neu inkl. Zahnriemen, immer VAG-gewartet) Beim starken Beschleunigen auf der Autobahn geht die "CAT" Warnlampe an, beim Gaswegnehmen wieder aus (bei ruhiger Fahrweise kein Problem) und mir kommt es so vor, als ob der Motor unter Leistungsmangel leidet (er dreht unwillig, und bei 220 Tacho war Schluß) Außerdem läuft er IMO etwas zu rauh und leicht ruckelig und das Getriebe schaltet zu hart, erst recht …

Hello, I have the following problem (ABH engine, Bj 92, 119000 km, inspection before 500 km, all new incl. Teeth belts, always VAG-anticipated)

When accelerating on the motorway, the "CAT" warning lamp starts, when taking off the gas (no problem with quiet driving) and it seems to me that the engine suffers from a lack of performance (it turns unwillingly, and at 220 speedo was the end) Moreover, it runs IMO a little too rough and slightly treble and the transmission switches too hard, especially if one considers mileage and maintenance status. ATF with sieves and small items were changed only a few hundred kilometers ago 8the 120,000 inspection with all that about it9

What can that be? Lambda probe? clogged cat? ECU?
Can you "free" the cat or do you need to change the things?

Because the car is not mine and I only drove it for a short time, I can't give any more details. Was only there as a "buy help"...
