   Ok so my car has just started slowing down by itself when driving along doesnt seem to be picking up speed as quickly either anymore...
   
   Just had new calipers pads and discs fitted on friday because the caliper was also sticking so now the car goes fine in neutral down hills etc but when in gear can be in any gear seems to be slowing down!
   
   Not sure if anyone knows the problem or not just thought would ask see if anyone knew cheers

   my car did something similar to that a while ago. it wasn't accelerating properly in any gear, especially the low ones and slowed down quicker then usual. when i took it into the garage he said it was the clutch. not that it had gone but i had to be adjusted. which i thought was weird, it did work after he did it but a few months after that it did it again and the clutch went all together, i don't know if this is the same thing. just sounded similar so thought id tell you. in case it was of any use....
