2.3 turbo t5 2003.

Just now and again feels a bit sluggish. One time it is quick as, then others it feels a bit sluggish like it doesn't want to pick up as much. Still quick but loses that responsiveness.

Might be me just getting used to it. I cleaned the maf which sorted a lumpy idle. Iam just wondering if there is anything else that could need a clean out.

No fault codes present

Mine peps up noticeably when I change air filter and plugs . If you havent done them for a while its worth a try , worth checking for boost leaks too, intercooler and hoses can split .

Same engine as my car.
What maintenance has been done to the car over the last year?
There's a number of things that can cause this. One-way valves, inlet leak, boost leak, split pipe, dodgy wastegate setup etc.

Any info will help.

Have you had a code reader on it yet?

It's had a service about 3 months ago. Plugs, oil, air and oil filters. Had a new 02 sensor bank 1 recently. And as I said I cleaned the maf the other day which made things loads better. No proper code reader done although I have a torque pro reader on my phone and no codes came up.
