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 |

Yikes...4,000rpm?!?!
 Is this something that applies specially to the GT's?I too shift at about 2500-2900 RPM. I thought this was actually a good point to shift so you're not putting too much wear on your engine or clutch. Hmm... Can an ST be shifting at 3000-3500 or have even more lead added and shift at 4000+? Sounds kinda scary.
