Black car + aircon + heat = no too happy
crikey.. with the aircon on (wife in car on way to work hair issues so roof up) and with the scorching heat, the air must be so so thin under the bonnet, espically at the air filter (standard). Its lumpy and doesn't pull at all.
I must be down at least 30-40bhp at the mo.
However, a blast down the M4 (lots of fast air) ment it was ok again off the next line.
Anyone else suffering.

Still think there is something wrong with your car if its that sensitive. My old one would kangaroo from time to time, but not that often, and the new one seems to not do it at all.

Dip your clutch and give the revs a blast when it happens.. Job done
Also look at the oportunity to get colder air in. Since fitting the spoon filter and the (fake) spoon snorkle 95% of my Roo probs have gone away
