my Skoda Octavia NFL (2020-Present) won't accelerate properly what could be wrong

Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather tools and parts necessary for the repair.
• Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface and the engine is cool.
• Disconnect the battery to ensure safety while working on electrical components.

2. Clean Throttle Body

• Tools Required: Throttle body cleaner, soft brush, rags, socket set.
• Remove the air intake duct connected to the throttle body.
• Spray throttle body cleaner into the throttle body and scrub gently with a soft brush.
• Wipe clean with a rag and ensure the throttle plate moves freely.
• Reattach the air intake duct securely.

3. Replace Air Filter

• Tools Required: Screwdriver or socket set (depending on air filter housing).
• Open the air filter housing and remove the old air filter.
• Inspect the housing for dirt and debris, cleaning as necessary.
• Install the new air filter, ensuring it fits snugly in place.

4. Test Fuel Pressure

• Tools Required: Fuel pressure gauge.
• Locate the fuel pressure test port on the fuel rail and connect the gauge.
• Turn the ignition to the "ON" position (do not start the engine) and check the fuel pressure reading.
• If the pressure is below specifications, consider replacing the fuel pump.

5. Inspect and Clean MAF Sensor

• Tools Required: MAF cleaner, screwdriver.
• Disconnect the MAF sensor connector and remove the sensor from the intake.
• Spray MAF cleaner onto the sensor element, avoiding physical contact.
• Allow it to dry, then reinstall the sensor and reconnect the electrical connector.
