Probably a faulty coolant temp sensor or Map sensor

When a car tailgates me, i slow down - then floor it and give them a cloud of diesel smoke to choke on :driving:

Maybe try a vcds scan, when entering the engine control unit - it tells u whats loaded on the box either 1.4, 1.6 or a custom chip (unless the person who chipped it did not rename the chip)

Worth the try
