Toyota Raum hesitation

My toyota Raum 1500 cc injected has started to loose power pulling away and hesitates badly when you put your foot down. Also going up hills. Do you think it could be dirty injectors or fuel filter! last changed 30 000 kms ago. Auto trans seems to be ok. help please.

Could be a number of things, crook air flow sensor being a prime candidate.

I would start with a scan on a diagnostic scanner, just don't pay the earth to get it done. An auto sparky or independent garage might do it cheap or even free for you. Have a ring around for a price.

Even if it dosn't throw a code a good scanner will show fuel trim etc which will generally give away the likely source of the problem.

You can also test MAF sensors without a scanner.

Are you mechanically inclined!

Start with secondary ignition before you go getting all complicated - back to basics.

Whats the service history like! I'd be looking into blocked VVTi cam pulley if the engine light has not come on and and no codes present.
