"Bogging" at low speeds

Good day, everyone!

A while back, I posted that I was experiencing a problem with low-speed acceleration. Advice given was to check the tranny fluid and perhaps the fuel filter.

Well, the fuel filter's changed, and the transmission fluid is good too. I'm still bogging down at low speeds. I notice it most when I'm going around corners in my neighborhood, and in traffic.

(Today, I had my coolant flushed, not that it's related, but just thought I'd add that in there as well.)

Also, today I noticed that the "Performance Shift" wasn't lit up at a point where I turned it on. If I throw the car into either neutral or park, it comes on, but when I move it back into a drive gear (or rev the engine while it's in neutral or park) it goes back off.

Folks, this is my daily driver, and I'm on the road for work every day around Denver. Anyone got an idea? I'm definitely on a budget for the next couple weeks, and I'm afraid that if it craps out on me, I might lose my job!

Your Pal,

Mr. C.
