ok for 1, How did you get air in the fuel lines? 2, let your car run for a couple secs with the gas cap open, this SHOULD purge any air.

Hi Stv fox
Just driven my golf back home on the motorway. In the heat its to be even more sluggish and also when I have full to 1/2 a tank it seems to be sluggish??????

umm if it's not the throttle body, or dirty injectors, than I'm sorry I dunno what it could, would have to research more.
