Rough running & cutting out
Hadn't started the car for 10+ days and the battery was completely flat. (again!) 
Managed to get it started off the vRS after a while, but now the car is running very badly.
It is cutting out when coasting (loss of P/S).
Idle is much lower, even bouncing off 0 RPM & hunting.
Boost is all over the place - at peak, the needle is bouncing, whereas it was steady before. Defi's are buzzing, don't know if overboosting.
Hesitation thru rev range under higher boost.
Have tried both high & low boost settings, with same problems.
Any ideas??
Is the map lost or affected when the battery dies?? (That is my only thought...)
