Get a video up, but I be 90% sure its the tappets.
They need adjusting at services and often dont get done. Two 13mm nuts on top rocker/cam cover. Whip that off and you will see the 13mm locking nuts and slots for a screwdriver to adjust them. Get some feeler gauges and find the measurements and get them adjusted  I'm actually going to do a video how to guide pretty soon on a 1.4 for this reason! 
Wishes for more power...
