Power loss!

Hi

well it's been good fun with all the snow and ice around but I suffered a wierd power loss yesturday - luckily on a minor road.

I was switching from normal drive mode to snow/gravel etc quite a few times and also switching between auto/manual when all of a sudden there was very little power - could do about 2 mph. After about 10 secs engine kicked back in again and off I went.

Do you think problem was caused by switching between the different drive settings (normal/snow-gravel) - perhaps the cpu got a bit confused. A couple of days before I kept it on the snow setting for a bout 20 minutes and there was no problem at all.

Any ideas?

Cheers
S

I've been having the same issue and experimenting a bit with this, trick seems to be not to be on the gas whilst changing from GGS to normal, take your foot off the accelerator before changing and keep your it off for a second or two afterwards and it doesn't seem to suffer from power loss

Edit: Just noticed you've posted this in D4, same issue anyway.....
