Car will not go over 30-35 mph.

Coming out of a U-turn car would not accelerate. Applying gas gave me a little more power but not enough to accelerate. Too much gas caused rpms to jump with no improved speed. Clutch pedal felt as if there was vibration somewhere down the line. There wasn't the normal resistance but the pedal came back on its own. Other than that it shifts or goes into gear fine. Engine revs fine out of gear. Idles normally.

SOURCE: engine light came on and car barely moved.

Take to autoparts store and have them run the diagnostics, then if still a problem, report back.

SOURCE: 2004 subaru forester, 99,000 miles. Check engine

Drop in to an Autozone, or Pep Boys, or similar big parts store & they will usually scan for codes free. This will hopefully eliminate all the guess work, or at least point everyone in right direction for better diagnosis. If not obvious from codes what the problem is, get back to us and we'll help you out.

Testimonial: "Thanks for the great suggestion . I'll have Autozone read the codes on Monday. Thanks again!"

SOURCE: engine lags when accelerator is pressed under load

Check the plugs for fouling. You may have a bad plug wire or wires. They cause the engine to hesitate at low rpm when they are faulty. Please rate me on this answer.

I have a 2013 nissan versa with acceleration issues. I don't have a code that comes up. Just happened once so far after having to stop for gas. Happened when I got back on the road.

A dirty or clogged fuel filter is another reason for a car not accelerating like it's supposed to when required to do so. With a dirty fuel filter, the engine won't be getting enough fuel which means that the vehicle won't be giving the acceleration performance that it should.

There are many reasons why your vehicle may be losing power, especially when accelerating. Some of these common causes are: Mechanical problems such as: Low compression, clogged fuel filter, dirty air filter, clogged Exhaust Manifold. ... Malfunction of actuators such as: Bad injectors, bad fuel pump, bad spark plugs

I have a 99 Pontiac grand am v6 3400. While driving I have lose of power when accelerator from 35 mph to 50 mph what would cause this

If it is up hills only then you have an underpowered engine that can not accelerate in third gear like the junky little Corolla E110 and it's Chevrolet Prizm clone 120 HP on on 2400 pound car do but a 170 HP V6 on a 3000 lb should have more power then that. In any case it is because you are in third gear and first and second gear have enough torque to accelerate properly.

It is the feature I hate the most on smaller engine cars.

My car wont go past 35 sometimes and bumps when it gets there

Only thing I can is do you have a check engine light. If you do what is the code. Many auto parts stores will read your code for free.
What you said picks up slowly and tops out at 35 mph. My Chrysler 200 took 2 block to get to 2000 rpm 30 mph. That was all it would do. I had a code and changed the throttle body sending unit. The throttle body and sending unit are 1 piece unit on my car. some cars you can change just the sending unit. It improved 75 percent and when we changed gas station 3 weeks later the problem went away. With the limited info you gave that is all I got. Hope it helps.

My mazda 6 starts with no problem, however if you sit still and let it idle it chokes and tries to lunge forward anytime I am not applying at 25 mph of acceleration the engine feels and sounds like it is...

your car has an electronic gas pedal instead of a throttle cable,.it needs to be replaced more than likely as the pedal is sending the wrong reading to the computer.this is a common problem on that car and it will usually set off a check engine light and a code for the accelerator position sensor.

Ford escort estate, when applying the gas the car moves to the left or right. even more so when slight turning and applying the gas the car is all over the place

If I understand correctly the steering wheel must be held in different positions to keep the car going straight while accelerating/braking accelerate hold wheel to one side ...braking hold wheel to other side. check strut mount(rubber mount on top of strut where it contacts car body)

98 Chevy Lumina has front end noise (rumble) from 10 mph and above. It gets increasingly louder as you accelerate. It does not change by coasting or applying the brakes. Also does it in reverse but not...

I may be a wheel bearing. Try shifting the weight of the car on the front tires by turning the wheelslightly while driving about 30 MPH. Don't turn enough to change lanes, just enough to put the load on the outside bearing. It may quiet down in one direction. The failed bearing is generally the side that you turned to in order to make the noise go away. Say the noise goes away when you steer to the right, the failed bearing is usually the right one.

You can also check for play by jacking up the car and shaking the tire. There should be no play.
