On my way back from the TASS today evening I consciously kept the speed below 50 km/hr and I had absolutely no issues with either pickup or acceleration in gears 1 to 4.
I guess you shouldnt worry about the sluggishness AFTER the SERVICE light pops up. I am guessing thats because the ECU goes into "limp" mode in order to protect the engine from further damage.
