Sluggish 2010 TL

Just bought my first TL, a 2010 Base with 30,000 miles. My wife also has a 2010 TL with similar mileage. I have noticed that my TL is a bit sluggish during acceleration esp. when compared to my wife's car. Any suggestions/thoughts? Fuel system need cleaning since I don't know if the previous owner used the correct octane?

do a search on resetting the ECU without disconnecting the battery.

after you do that, turning off VSA may also help

You could check the Air Filter and see if everything is clean... Sometimes leaves and stuff can get trapped in the piping so it can clog up the intake system
