odd power fluctuation on a D5
so, going down mototrway and when overtaking someone as i hate to creep past slowly i applied a heavy foot. then power seemed to come then go, then come back then dip then back again. it was only over the course of maybe 10 sec so maybe it was just the car deciding to drop down a gear then back but it didint feel like it was that.
could it be a lack of air? any ideas what it could be? assuming it wasnt my imagination |

Maybe fuel starvation to some degree or could be the auto box contemplating its decision...

Perhaps fuel filter or pump, need to get it on Vida/dice to see if it throws anything up and to test the fuel flow
