Only in first and second ![]() Only some of the time ![]() Assuming you haven't just got a lazy clutch foot, seems odd to me |

Surprised it's not been mentioned yet, but could simply be a filthy MAF sensor needing a clean. there's a guid on the forums somewhere (FAQ's I think) It takes about two minutes and is practically free (as long as you've got the right Torx bits to remove it). I'ts a well known cause of a flat spot around 3-4K rpm, most noticeable in low gears as revs rise quicker. ![]() |
