Otherwise, have you had your dealer check for the VANOS Intermediate Valve Lever problem? This is a known PUMA fault item that causes very jerky engine behavoir including moments when the power can virtually cease to deliver.

The UK details are : PUMA 4736767 - dated March 3rd 2005 - Author, John Beckley, Master Technician.
The local dealership says they cannot find any record of this as it is in the UK.
