Hi, I'm having a problem with my car. I'm not sure if there's already a thread about this or not because this is my first post but whenever I put my car in first to take off, my rpms go to about 1500 and then slightly pause (or hesitate) and then continue very short after that. I have already cleaned both my throttle bodies and my mass air flow sensors and it seemed to help a bit but it still hesitates on launch. & when I say launch I don't really mean a fast launch I mean like commuting speed

Try the idle relearn procedure

Thanks. I will definitely try this after school. Hopefully this works because it seems like I've tried everything for this particular problem and it's driving me crazy lol

did you touch the butterflies of the throttle bodies?

also, you didnt mention year and mileage of the car, ever do spark plugs on it?

I did touch the butterflies of the throttle bodies when I cleaned them. Right now the car has 106,300 miles with a fresh oil change as of last week. I just got the car in December and I haven't done spark plugs yet

did you like push on them, and open them? it doesnt take much to throw those out of whack

Yeah I pushed them to clean the inside of the throttle body but the car has been hesitating for a long while before I cleaned the throttle bodies


Maybe I should explain my situation more incase anybody else has had this specific problem: so when I put my car into first like I'm going to start moving, as I let go of the clutch and apply the gas the car will rev up normally until about 1500 and it will slightly pause and then continue shortly after that. I can slightly feel it in between gears when I shift but mainly just first gear is when I notice it and it sometimes makes the car want to stall. I've tried to do the idle relearn process but either I'm not doing it right or it's not working
