Every morning I slowly back out of my garage (there is like a 5% grade) in reverse and sometimes I lose throttle response. As if there is a huge lag or something like that. If I step on it the rpm will go up but the car won't move couple secs and will then jump. It almost feels like the engine is going to stall when the lag is there. And today is the first time it actually stalled. I've started it again, drove to the first traffic light on my way and the throttle had that weird 2-3 seconds lag again.
5k miles (just got it), no mods except some basic coding tweaks.
How long is everyone letting their cars warm up before putting it in gear and going?The EXACT same thing has happened to me...twice! Each time, I tried to feather the throttle back to life, before it cut out. I also have a relatively steep grade on my driveway and have to turn at the end, as I'm backing out, in order to avoid scraping the front.
