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.

Hmmm could be that, I did fill up at a different garage on Sunday, would crap fuel cause that though? Whats it going to do to the engine?

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
