| Do you have cruise control fitted - I have noticed that you get that disconcerting feeling when you have cruise set but have accelerated to a faster speed. When you take your foot off to slow down the cruise will resume at the previously set speed so you don't slow as you think you should.

Think I found the reason was the cruise controll was in the ON position. Turned it to OFF and it never have been a problem again . | |
