Therefore, I have not yet made an appointment to take it in and will see if it reappears. I'm following this thread intently...

I would get it into a dealer asap and get the fault codes read out and the data analysed, mine is going back in tomorrow and is definitely getting worse, the reduced power warning is getting more frequenct, 4 times yesterday and once today, every time car was in M (power) mode, in non-M mode it seems ok. In engine fault / reduced power mode its gutless, don't know what the computer does, guess it retards all the timing and opens the turbo waste gates?
AFAIK mine will be having a vanos valve and vanos sensor changed tomorrow.
