Default stuttering at higher revs....hot weather?

Some stuttering at higher revs when the air con is on ( i think only).....its done it about 4/5 times in the last week.
Anything to worry about or is it the heat coupled with aircon under full load?

I will be seeing simon hopefully within the next couple of months for a tweak to the map anyway but a bit at the moment.

Any particular gear or is it under load in 4th, 5th or 6th. Mine sometime judders/misses under full boost.

Air con may inducing more load through the engine, therefore putting it into a different zone/column of the timing/fuelling maps.This column may have less timing or more fuel 'for safety'. But it is a little too safe and hence is mis-firing.

If it is that, it's quite easy to sort with a tweak.

Most likely the aircon compressor cutting in and out.
