More details would be useful. Not everyone will know much just from saying gtech. Which motor, which controller,etc, how old, and is this sudden from perfect to not, or has it not been used for a while and so on. Fill in the gaps, paint the whole picture!

Stripped/worn nylon gears in the hub or even water ingress rusting things up. The only way to know is open the hub to look.
