Engine was having power weirdness when first started up and during slow driving. The car has done this for 2 years now.
It feels like fuel is being pulled over and over again.
This weekend I replaced the map sensor and bang its fixed. Throttle response and fuel mileage has improved as well.

Has anyone tried cleaning their intake with a chemical mist during high idle? My intake is pretty dirty and thinking of doing it.
Company s make intake and turbo cleaners in spray cans you spray during high idle, I would get an oil change right after.
Any thoughts on this?

I am leery of induction cleaning on turbo engies as there are mixed reports of turbo damage from doing so.

Mine has been having less torque than usual with this cold weather, but only for the first mile or so till it warms up a bit.
