Ok I know this is going to sound really strange, but here goes

My car was driving perfectly , no faults and running approx 280bhp on some Revo software

I stupidly locked my keys in the boot and had a locksmith come out and open the car from the drivers side lock, first time the car interior lights came on and the alarm went off but the door didn't unlock, second attempt it unlocked and I retrieved the keys and all was well.

Untill.... I drove the car and thought it felt sluggish, it made boost but more like a standard 200bhp no where near as quick. So I pulled over and restarted and off she went pulling like a train.
Fast forward to the next day and exactly the same, drove it and it felt standard, stopped , restarted and then it felt mapped again... same again this morning....

Is there any way these two things are connected? Just seems so strange how it happened. It doesn't run badly in anyway when it's low on power it just feels standard....

Any help appreciated
 
I take it that the battery wasn't disconnected at any point? As all that comes to mind with Revo software is that if the battery is disconnected without a jump pack or charger in line being used to keep the power live, then the map will revert back to the stock Revo setting B1 F0 T0.

I guess it wasn't as you say it's switching between mapped power and stock power which wouldn't be the case as it would constantly be stock power, but thought it was worth a mention just in case.

Best thing would be to get it hooked up to VCDS to see what's happening when it feels like stock power.
 
That is exactly what I thought as well HHS3, as Ive had the same experience myself in the past.
