I'm having a strange problem since 2-3 weeks. When I drive my car after about 5 hours or more w/o using it, it feels like the engine doesn't want to accelerate on the 1st and 2nd gears. I get that 1-2 times and then it's OK until the next time I start my car.<P>The feeling is hard to describe but looks like this: I step on gas on the first gear, everything is normal until I hit 2500 RPM. Then for about 1 second the car almost doesn't accelerate and after that it's all normal. I get the same thing in second gear. It does that one or two times and then everything goes back to normal. The colder it is outside, the more the engine does that.<P>I hope somebody can help me cause I'm scrared it could become a bigger problem in the futur.<P>thanx!

same thing happens to me<BR>just don't try to drive the car to hard till it warms up

yeah but I didn't have that problem last winter.<P>And did you have any problem related to that?

i have te same problem even when my car is warm. Do you feel like a stuttering.. you can hear it in the exhaust thats its not coming out in a steady stream. I was told it might be the clutch or that i let the rpms drop too low while switching betweens gears.<P>-eD

My clutch is new and I shift kinda quick so I don't think that's the problem.<P>But thanks anyway!

how do you control rpm when you shift? It will drop anyways.
