I had a diagnostic and full service inspection on my Celica done from a local Toyota Dealer. It passed with flying colors so I know there's no large concerns at hand that would cause my car to have a fuel issue. Anyway, here's my issue:
Whenever I am driving around (city driving that is), right after I shift and then press the accelerator pedal, my car lightly hesitates, it's not a smooth transaction kinda deal. It started happening about 3 or 4 months ago but now it seems routine. Doesn't matter what gear I shift into either. It's a very light (but noticeable) hesitation (under normal driving). If I were to accelerate it hard, there's no issue at all. Only when normally driving and shifting. By the way, I shift gears when I reach 2.5K - 3K RPM under normal driving. I really don't want to pay a mechanic to spend hours troubleshooting if I can help it. What would cause this issue? This post has been edited by 6G96GT: Sep 21, 2009 - 1:54 PM |

My engine start hesitate under 1200rpm... over that you have a mechanical problem Most of my shifts are at around 4000, sometimes I take it up to 5k if I'm getting on the highway. Drive over 100 miles every day, car has 153k on it and no issues other than some slowly leaking valve seals, and I get around 30 miles per gallon. See no reason to shift so low when I can have some fun in the higher power range. -------------------- 1999 Celica GT
