Hi Scotty

I drive a VW polo 2007 BTS engine automatic car mileage is 95600

I can get an engine check light,EPC and traction control light on the dashboard

I scanned it and get a P0122 ERROR CODE, I CLEANED THE THROTTLE BODY,CHANGED THE FUEL FILTER,AIR FILTER,SPARK PLUGS, OIL FILTER 

 

I CHANGED THE CAR ENGINE OIL AND THE GEARBOX OIL BUT the problem hasn't been resolved

 

I am able to Rev the car when idle to around 7000rpm nicely, but when driving when it reaches 3000rpm its like it looses power and acceleration becomes poor and it doesn't change gears

 

What could I do to try fix the problem

P0122 has to do with the throttle pedal position sensor. It has either gone bad or the connection is poor. Or the harness is open.

I cleaned the throttle body

I am getting the P0122 fault code and a
P1528

BANK 1 CAMSHAFT adjustment open circuit

What does it mean ?

P1528 has to do with the Intake camshaft control solenoid. It might have gone bad.

Faulty throttle position sensor switch.  Check all connections for looseness and corrosion.  Switch may need replacement.
