Volkswagen Golf losing power

Car: Volkswagen Golf
Variant: 1.4 S
Model Year: 2006

Categories: Running Rough, Starting & Power Loss

I recently replaced the oil, spark plugs and valve set. ever since i've noticed that when i'm trying to build up speed there is a loss of power, especially between 2nd and 3rd gear. it can happen if i'm on the motorway in 5th and i have to brake, there is a dip in the revs and it struggles to get back up again.
