182 feeling a little off colour

[Dubai182]

Hi guys,

Been a while since I posted in here!!

I recently got back my 182 off the guy I sold it to, after he'd lost his job and needed to leave ASAP.

Anyway, before I sold it to him I thought it felt a little slower than usual, it has a Supersprint exhaust, Group N ECU, decat, inlets and BMC. Usually it'd quite comfortably beat a Golf GTI but before I sold it, it wasn't doing as well. I thought it could just be the hot ambient temps but I recently drove it and still feels sluggish.

It's done approx 75k....any ideas what could be causing it?

a good service needed mate? sorry to say the obvious but its worth checking

also just check nothing silly like a sticky caliper etc

It was serviced 5k ago but think you might be right, always worth double checking!

The filter clogged with dust/sand?

Must be a nightmare living over there.
