Thanks, I wonder what is in MAF Cleaner......... might just be degreaser rebadged :p ?

Went for a bit of a drive in PWR mode, seems allright. Now the thing I notice, when accelerating normally,
then it shifts into 2nd gear and then when accelerating into 2nd gear, there isn't much difference between
half and full throttle, normal or is that how they just behave?

Thanks

it's special electronic cleaner, a lot of them are isopropyl alcohol which will evaporate. Full throttle in my car just keeps going, sounds like it's slipping

It might be worth checking/replacing your throttle position sensor. Grab yourself a haynes service repair manual on your next trip to your local parts shop

Have you checked the condition and level of the transmission fluid?
