You had power lost after warm up and doing that fixed it?

Unfortunately not. I just read this thread hoping to find an answer. My 03 manual has issues with throttle change when warmed up. Like shift into second gear with a little throttle and after full engagement nail the throttle and it feels as the car slows before it accelerates. It also plays heck to spin tires but my 03 auto does it easily. Like driving 15 mph in first and nail the throttle and it won't spin the tires but my auto will light them up if I do that
