All the things you said show lost or inadequate power. Other causes include bad ground, cracked battery plate, and so on.

Uprated supercharger pulley diameter?
in
S-Type (X200, X202, X204, X206) 1999 - 2008
You'll move the peak power lower down so run out at higher revs, I suspect. Heat is the real issue with an Eaton in the STR, whatever the pulley.

S-Type (X200, X202, X204, X206) 1999 - 2008
You need the letter, which is likely P in some of these cases but could be C or B etc. P1646 is bank 1 so no point really in changing bank 2...

A sticking caliper piston can also create serious judder (wobble, if you prefer that term).

Car missing a beat when driving slowly

S-Type (X200, X202, X204, X206) 1999 - 2008
If it thinks (rightly or wrongly) it's losing traction, the ABS module (it does DSC) will message the PCM/TCM to cut revs/power and avoid gear...

One but not the only possibility would be a sticking caliper piston. Takes time to damage the new disc enough to feel it.

Help me persuade my wife we need a 4.2
in
S-Type (X200, X202, X204, X206) 1999 - 2008
I've seen others say that the 4.2 does about 1mpg less than the 3.0 overall. I think the reason is that they weigh roughly the same so the energy...

S-Type (X200, X202, X204, X206) 1999 - 2008
I think a 55plate may have a DPF, which would concern me much more and if so I would not go near a remap.
