Lumpy bits & rattles

[Baj]

I was at criusing speed on the motorway and put my foot down to overtake and the car felt odd, like it was being governed or a strong blustery headwind, a bit of acceleration then a bit of driving in custard, then a bit of accel, bit of custard etc, half a sec of each.
No warning lights or anything. Is this the product of crap petrol or something worse. Speed was about 80.

Also annoying squeeks from rear. Is this the tailgate fixings issue.
Dash squeeks and rattles on the left hand side. If I push by the Airbag logo it stops. How can I stop this? It is bolted in correctly.

Anyone?

squeaks from rear, maybe susp tops, rear seats rubbing, maybe tailgate trim but you will see if this is loose and rubbing.

custard driving sounds a little like when my etm was failing but that was more when trying to maintain a speed than accelerating. When the boost gauge hit 10psi vacuum it would do it, slow down, accelerate, slow down, accelerate. no codes and no lights, went on for months like that...

squeeky dashboard check the a pillar trim isnt rubbing the dash, mine had been removed and not fitted back quite right and it squeeked like that...?

Cheers, I will keep an eye on it.
