Hmmm, definitely NOT cured.
 Today, on my way out (to meet up with Adrian E & johnny_quattro) I had a definite lack of power turning left out of the bottom of my road onto the A-road (both 30mph limits). I had just "pootled" downhill gently to the junction from a cold start, maybe 300 metres at 25mph or so. A quick "twitch" of the accelerator and it was back to normal and I joined the main road with some urgency! No further symptoms all day. Just wondering if it could be in any way gearbox-related, i.e. sticking in a too-high gear as it slows down.  Would flicking the lever across to tiptronic mode as I slow down at junctions enable me to see anything useful in the DIS if it was?
