Probably the MAF (Mass air flow meter). Expensive to replace but a common
problem.

Audi 80 1.9TDI flat spot help required
Hello
Got a problem with a 1.9TDI car. It goes great until the revs get up
to about 3000 rpm. Then the power just falls away and the pickup is
really flat. This is a pain when towing.
The point at which this happens is a little variable, but 3000 rpm or
thereabouts sees the onset of this problem.
Anyone any pointers on what this could be. Its getting worse!.
Cheers... Rob.

NACK. I don't think it's _that_ expensive and there's surely almost no
labour involved.

Update
A friend who owns an alternative VW/Audi repair business tested the
MAF, but initially found nothing wrong. He re-set the ECU memory and
told me to use the car and bring it back next day/if the fault
exhibitted itself. Gotta say the car was much improved after this, but
after a while, the fault came back. This was logged in the ECU as the
MAF.
Its gonna cost £125 (plus 17.5% tax) to replace, and the guy will fit
it free.
Thanks again for the help with this.
Cheers... Rob.

I had a similar problem with my A-6 4.2. At almost the same rpm and
under load it would hesitate (start missing) until I got the rpm's up.
It took seven times to the dealership for them to finally identify
the mass air flow sensor. It has been replaced and seems much metter.
