ive noticed in the last few weeks my ibiza tdi sport 130 doesnt feel as fast, especially 3rd gear, the turbo doesnt really whistle: its more of a whoosh and third gear doesnt seem to be lifting the nose as it should, any suggestions gratefully appreciated!

You sure its not been psychological - just getting used to it?? Get it taken to a rolling road and see if its down on power.

Editing your spelling
a loss of power and less of a whistle and more of a woosh sounds to me like it might be a boost leak, check all your boost pipes and connections. Also could get a laptop with vag com on to log the boost requested vs actual to see whats happening.
