slugish at first in drive

[franchise2815]

OK when my car is in drive it runs sluggish till it hits about 20 mph. But when I have it in manual shift it runs fine. Does anyone have a solution for this?

I can't help much because I am not familiar with your drive train but check out the service manual: http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/

I'm not sure about a solution but I have the same thing. It accelerates slow till it hits around 2k RPM then it gains speed pretty quickly. I even notice when its in steptronic/manual shift mode. If there was a way to chance this that would be great.

Yeah mine only does it in automatic drive. Once it gets over the lil hump it its fine. Beats me what causes it...

Same here with my 2010 model

that my friends, is what you call the cvt lag... lol after i installed my header in almost completely removes the lag, but only if ur willing to cut the factory o2 sensor to extend it (voids warranty but eliminates lag)
