Mines a pain in the arse at the moment - My 2001 car had the kangaroos when it was a properly hot day (mostly when the roof was off and I was passing a bus stop of fit women!), but the 2005 doesn't seem to care if the temperature is single figures outside or not - more than a minute in crawling traffic and it starts to hesitate. Think I'll throw it in the dealers next week.
I had the same on my 05. Dealer put it on the computer and turned out the ECU had a failure...

New ECU fitted, feels like it did the day I drove her out the showroom again!!!

You've sold it to me - I'm off to the dealer this very minute. Well, perhaps I'll wait till tomorrow! Cheers for the info though.

We stopped off in East Grinstead and gave the sensor its first [gentle] MAPWhack.
Percussive maintenance.
