Good evening all!!

On my journeys I have noticed that my car has developed a small issue. I will be commuting to work going 60/70mph and the car will lose power for a very short amount of time, as if someone has tapped the brake pedal (no I do not catch the pedal). Its happened for a few weeks/a month now. I originally thought it was just wind slamming against my car!

This is a random thing, I cannot identify a pattern to when it's more likely to do it. There are no obvious signs to what it is. The temperature reading is good, no warning lights etc. When it happens the rev/s don't tend to move either as it happens so quick. I then thought the A/C might be affecting it but it happens with it on or off. Everything seems to lean towards an electronic fault more than a mechanical one...

I had my last full service about a year ago (10k miles), so it wont be too long until I take it in again.

Has anyone had an issue like this before or still having it?

Any responses will be appreciated! Thanks!
