slight hesitation when i gently give gas from a stop

so.... yeah... like when i am sitting at a stoplight or driving really slow and then give my car some gas... it seems to hesitate just a second and then go. no problems anywhere else, no check engine lights. what do you guys think?

huhmm...lemme guess, you're both driving a 3.0? that hesitation is common because of the glass trainy in the 3.0... i have the same problem...start saving for a new trainy or another car...*knock on wood*

Is the problem due to lack of engagement of the transmission or an engine "sag"?

Older 2.2L Accords had a hesitation problem that occurred at low speed, usally around 1500 rpm. When attempting to accelerate the car would hesitate badly. Problem was caused by partial blockage of EGR ports leading to remaining open ports receiving too much exhaust gas resulting in overlean engine stumble.

good luck

i dont think its transmission related. seems to be more engine related. I just redid all the egr stuff and gave it a tune up. maybe its time to sea foam.

You should see about replacing your o2 sensor that can give you a lil acceleration problem.

EGR ports and manifold have to be cleaned of carbon by removal and manual cleaning.

good luck
