YES mate! (And STILL have sweaty nightmares about it!) 'twas the throttle body sensor (for me anyway) requiring replacement of the whole throttle body. (courtesy of the fish). Took me a long time to finally source the problem for certain. As you say, VERY annoying and embarrassing stopping dead all over the place!
