    Valvetronic motor is my first choice but would like an expert opinion and a regular mechanic.

    Ah im guessing its gone into limp mode. Try testing the motor with a multi meter for the correct resistence. It also could be the module either. Good luck with it.

    She does after about half an hour when she's warm.

    Seems to be a bit of oil around the vvt connectors so I'm guessing its a gasket leak around there somewhere causing hassle.
