Question

In 5th when I accelerate hard (UK300) power seems to come on in surges (increases/eases/increases/eases). I have not noticed this before and it does not seem to do it in the other gears (maybe it does but hard to notice). Anyone with an MY01/02 seem to have this? Anyone got any idea what maybe causing it? Is it normal? I've only really noticed it in the last couple of days.
Sean.

I had this problem in my MY00 PPP a few weeks back, just hard acceleration in 5th (foot to the floor) i too had filled up before hand from a garage i dont normally use, having filled up again i dont seem to have this problem anymore, my car is in for a service thou on saturday so ill get them to check the boost solenoid just to be on the safe side
