The car is Seat Cordoba 1.9tdi 1997, done 200 000kms.
I first noticed this problem few months ago when there was sort of lean spot in acceleration while overtaking. It didn't bother me much as I could still use the car normally.
Today I went up a steep hill and felt that the car hasn't got the power it used to have.
To be sure I put the pedal to the floor and nothing much happened, it barely accelerated at all, however when I eased off the pedal it started accelerating again.
I haven't seen any signs of excess smoke or heard any weird noises yet, however now it's pretty much like driving normal n/a 1.9d.
I thought it is probably worn turbo, but could there be any other causes?
