I recentlt brought a 6N2 1.0 mpi polo to replace the 6N 1.0 polo i had before, i've noticed that when going u even the slightest of inclines, the power drops dramaticly and i have to dro it 2 gears just to stop it slowing down, can anyone give me any clues as to what it might be...

1.0 have little power climbing hills, but it shouldnt drop that much to have to change down two gears.
Id look into a new air filter insert and cleaning your throttle body with some decent carb cleaner
TBF if it hasnt had a full service recently, id get one done.

Cheers mate, sorry its taken so long to get back to ya... got rid of that polo, brought a newer one now with a touch more power.
