Sure it's not just the DPF regenerating which is normal ?

No sorry forgot to say it’s a petrol 1litre engine

No stored fault codes if you scan it ? possibly engine coolant temp . sensor ? Is it perhaps sluggish / noisy fan when air con on ?

No fault code showing, it is quite sluggish especially in 2nd which is strange feels like struggling for petrol at times in 2nd

You checked it with suitable scanner ? RE sluggish , checked the basics like plugs , battery condition , alternator charging rate ,
