Narrative:
During approach to lax we received a late change of runway; from 24R to 25L. We were a bit high when we were cleared for the approach to 24R and then changed to 25L. Approximately 10 miles out we slowed to 200 and configured the jet. There was an uncommanded power surge and we decided to go around. The reason for the go around was the uncommanded power surge and we were not stable. We cleaned up the jet as soon as possible and did a go around back to a normal landing at lax. After the fact foqa informed me that there was a gear over speed. Neither myself nor the first officer were aware of this. This is the second time that I have had an uncommanded power surge after a runway change at lax. Both resulted in [a] go around to a normal landing.
