Hi, Clutch slip would cause the revs to rise in relation to speed, not stall.
Hoggy.

 

Thanks Hoggy, I'll do a bit more testing

Stalling revs is a bad choice to describe this, it's more like the revs sit at 4k before taking off again

 

I'm still having this issue, always around the 4k Rev level, today I removed the GFB DV+ valve and refitted the OEM unit in an attempt to see if this would improve things (unlikely I guess) I'll advise tomorrow once I've had a chance to give this a try, is it possible I have a boost leak somewhere or would I have other symptoms with this?

 

If while climbing in the revs the engine pauses at a certain rpm figure before moving further up I'd expect something to be slow in adapting for the rev range. At around 4k rpm I'd guess the turbo is already producing enough pressure. Perhaps the variable part of the turbo needs its time to adapt for higher rpms. Or perhaps the tumble flaps in the intake are slow to adapt.

Ideally you'd have a scan of all engine parameters while moving through the rev range.

In case the clutch would slip, the rpms would increase yet the speed of the car wouldn't. Just like putting your foot on the clutch pedal, pushing it half way while driving: engine starts to rev freely, the car's speed doesn't change.

 

It does sound like something in interrupting the power at 4000rpm. If it didn't do this prior to the remap then I'd say it was maybe related to this. Strange you thought it was the clutch though mate as the revs would rise as if you had accelerator and clutch pressed at the same time.

 

Thanks guys, It seems to have gone since fitting the oem DV, I've cleaned the DV+ and re oiled so I'll try it today and see ifs still the same if so the DV+ must be the culprit

Tbh Craig I panicked and assumed it must be the drive, I'd been reading up on clutch slipping on the TTS after a map, hence the error in thinking it was slipping :-(

 

First drive after refitting the DV+ and its performing as should be
Fingers crossed

 

Good news!

 

Hey gogs, mine has done this a few times (prior to DV+ fitting) it's not something that happened all the time ... I've around 58k mileage wise 2.0TFSI. Can't remember if it done it before the remap or not. But when it does happen its a bit upsetting as its a massive power drop then suddenly regains!
Not much help I suppose posting this but I guess it's a fact of yours isn't the only motor doing it... :-/ Lemme know if the problem comes back...

 

Hey Janice,

This has come back again sadly, I'm going to refit the OEM DV, but I'm wondering if this is a boost leak somewhere, the tts is the first cat I've owned that has a turbo, to everyone else where are the likely areas the boost leak is likely to occur ?

 

Gogs trace all the boost pipes and get a squirty bottle... Squirt some on them and see if any bubbles come about, other wise it's just gonna be a case of replacing what people think :-(
I'm down on boost slightly and a bit of power according to DYNO runs reckon it could be the turbo, done a carbon deposit clean to the best of my ability and £! Haven't done a DYNO since..

 

I've been reading an old post with video and wonder if my clutch is the culprit :-( although my Rev counter needle does not rise or dip as in the video, my needle seems to sit at around 4k when it happens :-(
