Thanks Clan; this is a possibility, but I wouldn’t have thought the speedbumps are severe enough to trigger a vertical accellerometer? Even if I come to a complete stop, and edge over them at 2-3mph, when the wheel comes down onto the road again, I get lurching for a couple of seconds (like fuel is swilling around and the pick-up isn’t getting a feed). I’ll experiment more tomorrow, see if I can narrow down the exact parameters when it happens.

If your ABS or DSTC is kicking in at low speed it can feel very similar.
Thanks Tommy; not sure it’s this, definitely no lights on the dash...
