    I have a theory which I'll be investigating.

    right!

    bloody thing crapped out on the motorway today... twice!





    2 common factors every time it happens are...

    1. car is in cruise at motorway speeds.

    2. car is going uphill and building boost (around 5psi)

    any ideas chaps?

    Hope an M-R-P clean sorts it out, will be a result if that's all it is.
