Default Loss of acceleration after clutch\DMF replacement

Hi people,

Since the DBF\Clutch replacement (thats another story, done to death on here already), I have noticed there is no pick up or acceleration for the first 1500 RPM when I am pulling off in 1st and 2nd gears.

It then kicks in when the revs are up but there is a definite lag, and can leave me stranded when I’m trying to turn into junctions and that.

I had the Clutch\DMF done at an indo, for less than half the price of my Volco garage, and used LuK parts.

Going back to them later so they can have a look but interested to kno what people thuink.

Any ideas?

Just back from indo garage and one of the air inlet pipes was not secured and had come lose after the recent Clutch\DMF replacement.

Driving like a dream now.

Peace.
