i have a problem here.. just now drove to pick eldest bro up from work at Ghim Moh.. i live in Bt Batok.. the distance is around 8km.. here is how it went.. i started the engine cold.. it is in the "C" region.. so i just slowly drove, i noticed that i cannot bring the Tachometer up to 3/4, just slightly more than 1/2 after flooring.. i thought it could be becos of the cold engine.. when i reached ghim moh, around 20mins later.. the engine is in the normal position, which is in the centre for my case.. so i tried to floor it.. again, it is still slightly more than 1/2 of the tacho.. what could be wrong?? anyway, today dad just got the brakes done.. is it becos of the brakes that stop it from going higher up?? i am pretty concerned about this.. becos gear shifting is very much affected.. the gears are too wide apart, so not hitting the right RPM to shift will have difficulties in picking up as dad needs to ferry some stuffs for work at the back.. thank u all for ur help..

Hi people! Long time no post. Anyway, would like to have your opinion. My Fabia has been behaving weird lately. The engine feels very sluggish when I start driving. Then after about 500m, it's ok. Never had this problem before. Car is due for its 10K servicing soon. Anything wrong, you think?
