Cold start sensor?
My car has been really slow in first gear and has a very rough idle to it. When I push on the gas my car kinda trembles and accelerates slowly in short burst until i hit second and then everything is alright. After my engine is warmed up again it works just fine. I am changing my oil filter, fuel filter, spark plugs, oil and transmission fluid this weekend.. If this doesn't help what do you think the problem might be? I would lean towards my cold start sensor, my injectors, or possibly my fuel pump.

mine does the exact same thing! Not all the time though, just certain times. When it idles it almost is a "rumble" then when i hit the gass it bogs down for a while then takes off, this happens in almost evry gear i go into. And one time it did stall, it wouldnt start again.i cant figure it out either

I just replaced my spark plugs, did an oil change with a new filter, and changed the fuel filter. It doesn't bog down anymore. I had a massive amount of carbon build up on the electrodes of my spark plugs... It still idles kinda bad when it is cold though.....
