OK, Here goes:
I haev a 99 RS, 35k on it. Car bogs a bit at 3500 rpm when I nail it..its like it hits a flat spot... once it passes that point (kind of too slow for me) It pulls sweet (3700-3800 RPM) to redline...
Now...I do alot of city drivnig= no high spped sustained driving for a while....BUT when I do drive out to NJ or (above a 100 MILE) drive...problem is fixed...only to return within a few days late...
I noticed once when I replaced the air filter on the car and OILED it too much (used an open air element) it coated the MAF and car wouldnt go past 3500 (same area when i getting bog) ...
When I cleaned it it was fine...
What is going on? Is it the MAF , car runs perfect otherwise,,,
Thanks for your help..
