My gti does not feel as powerful as it used to be.
Not sure whether it has lost power or I have just gotten used to the power of the car.
Assuming car did lose power, what causes should I be looking at?
What parts could possibly be failing?
Cheers

It could be your just used to it as I thought this when I had my Gti, I stopped driving it for a week and drove the 308 instead, when I went back to the Gti it felt quick again

Usually it's you getting used to the power, if not give it a good service.

I found I got used to it so got something faster!
I'll get bored of the S eventually, so may save up for a supercharger!
