Rebuild
#6
is this a 16v engine? did you clean the MAF YET, from 12 inches distant with maf cleaner or carb cleaner. ?

the top power lost causes are
compression lost.
maf dirty
tuneup? fuel filter clogged that will kill power fast. and is in the 60k list
egr valve stuck open,, stalls all the time.

Btw 2, if the compression NOT 150 to 170PSI but a tad low , add oil to the cylinder,a teaspoon only (no more), if compression rises rings are shot, if not its just a valve job.
a rebuilt head is like $400 a whole engine can be 4 times that.

my 16v did 185psi warm.
