I picked up my new FD2 Civic Sport last Monday with only 75km on the clock. Since then I have been driving nicely, not thrashing it or anything, basically just riding it nice for the first 1000km. I will admit that once or twice I have given it a little, say to 4000revs just to feel it pull a bit.
I noticed late last week and early this week, that during my driving, the automatic shifting would be a little jumpy. I passed this off as it dis-continued and thought nothing of it.
Lately though over the last two days I have noticed that there might be a bit of lag in the car. The other day I was travelling 90km on an 80km and didn't even realise it cause it felt as though I was only going 60km.
I remember in teh first few days that I had the car, if i accelerated or pushed on the accelerator the car would respond immediantly and lurch forward which i loved, now though i push and there is no more "pull feeling" and there is a lag before the car decides to rev hard and accelerates.
Does anyone else experience this? The car has only done about 600+ km.
I'm just wondering if there might be something I should check on my car like the intake manifold or my air intake or is it just that i'm getting used to my car and its all in my head?
