I signed up a while ago too. Not gona hold my breath though about whether it gets anywhere or not though. The oil companies are so big now that I have serious reservations about wehether or not there could ever be a consumer group big enough to actually make a differenc [:S].
I've got a VTA dump valve and have no problems either. Have you tried putting the re-circ valve back on to see if the dump valve is definately the cause of the problem.
At a guess I'd say that when the MANU light is on then the gearbox is to be used like a manual. Put it in 1 boot the arse off it and click the gearstick up to 2 when your revs are screaming and so on instead of just having it in drive. I'd say that this gives you better acceleration and more control when booting it as you are in control of the gears instead of the gearbox.
I'll soon need at least two tyres. The front is getting well twitchy but they are not yet under the legal limit. If there is an ESC day there in March I might be up for going then.
