What causes the lack of power in acceleration and engine wheezing in the 6th and 7th gears of the Tayron?

The reasons for the lack of power in acceleration and engine wheezing in the 6th and 7th gears of the Tayron are as follows: Exhaust system malfunction: Exhaust system malfunction mainly refers to poor exhaust flow, usually caused by a broken catalytic converter. Of course, if someone mischievously stuffs potatoes, steel wool balls, etc., into the exhaust pipe, that's a different story. A blocked exhaust pipe will lead to a decrease in engine power. Clutch malfunction: Slipping clutch in manual transmission models can cause the engine speed to increase during acceleration while the vehicle speed does not rise. Dual-clutch automatic transmissions can also experience such faults. Air conditioning issues: If the air conditioning is turned on during summer, small-displacement models will feel sluggish in acceleration, and fuel consumption will significantly increase. This is because the air conditioning requires driving the compressor when operating, and the compressor demands a substantial amount of power. The engine has to carry such a large internal load, so it's inevitable to feel slow acceleration and lack of power.
The issue of weak acceleration and wheezing sounds in the 6th and 7th gears of my repaired Tayron is quite common, usually related to intake system blockages or transmission problems. For example, if the air filter is too dusty, the engine can't get enough air and starts to wheeze, or insufficient transmission fluid can cause sluggish gear shifts. I recommend checking the air filter first—replace it if it's dirty. If that doesn't help, inspect the turbocharger and fuel system. Additionally, prolonged high-speed driving without downshifting can increase the burden, so regular maintenance, like replacing the air filter every 10,000 kilometers, can prevent this problem. Take it to a professional shop for diagnosis as soon as possible to avoid further damage.
