    Subtle power loss

    Hi all new in the forum but a curly question to start about power loss
    2002 gu zd 3.0 tdi
    Runs fine most of the time but occasionally once cruising about 100 it starts to slowly decelerate no amount of right foot will make it accelerate again until you lift off the throttle and put it back down which seems to clear the problem for a while
    It doesn't seem to happen by any regular means it can come and go to the point you forget about it
    or it can be so bad it's frustrating like a bad cab driver on and off the gas all the time
    Egr has been blanked and boost and pyro seem fine during this with no check engine light cutting in or anything like that?
    Any thoughts appreciated

    Limp mode being triggered?
    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.

    Take the EGR blank out and see if it still does it.
