so I know I am not the first to notice that this car behaves oddly at times and others have brought this up before but does anyone have factual information about whats going on with the engine? here s the scenario I am doing 60 or 65mph on the fwy in 6th gear, all of a sudden I will step on the gas 3/4 of the way brsikly and clack ti clack clack clack....total loss in power ....let go of the gas ...do it again and we are back to normal. The sound is not unlike the rev limiter on an f1 car when it's entering the pits (if you have ever heard a close up) it sounds awful. I have no CEL s so I doubt that it is a problem but it's sure annoying , I don't know squat about electronic tuning but I can't believe that they didn't foresee this problems when they tuned the engine. I understand that a car thats floored at 60mph in 6th will bog down but this is different ...anyways if anyone knows what is going on when the engine does this please elaborate , just curious I am not that worried about it

Mine doesn't bog if I'm going uphill at 40 in 6th. I've never had this happen.
