I got a 2001 GTS auto with 138k miles. Had this problem a few years. But its gettting worse.
Sometimes when i start it and try to pull out it will not move but really slow... nor will it rev up( in park or neutral or drive) its starts pulling really slow and takes a about 50yards then it takes off and does fine. Then after it does it that one time your fine. will stop at redlights and pull right back out no problem. May stop somewhere for a few hours..you may get back in and it will be fine...then agin sometimes it will do the same thing. I have removed the catlytic converter.... new plugs... cleaned MAF (every few weeks.) I did have a transmission installed when i first got the car. Idont know if it did it before i had a trans put in. I bought the car with a bad trans. I changed the intake bolts that was on recall. Had the whole injector system cleaned and the intake cleaned(afte that it did very well for about a month.) But it would still do it everyonce in a while. Ive did everything. No mechanic shops nor i can figure out whats going wrong? When i take it to the shop it never does it for them. But it does it for me...my wife..and my younger brother. Please ANY HELP?????? or sugguestions?
