Slight acceleration delay
2010 SR5 with 4.0
Sometimes (mostly) there is a delay (not sure delay is the best word), I give it gas and it barely wants to move and then finally goes! It seems electronic maybe. I know these things don’t have a throttle cable, so maybe it has to do with what has replaced the cable, or maybe a TPS? It does seem to happen more when I’ve been driving and stop briefly, like to check the mail. Anyone else ever have this, resolve? Thanks |

How's your transmission fluid level? When is the last time it was changed?

Sprint booster on race 5. Problem solved.

Wouldn’t that be awesome?!?!! |
"Sometimes" you are in overdrive - check gear ratios and understand how transmission works. Shift from D to S and in 4s gear give some throttle. Be safe.

I have learned to press gently but quickly at first (to get past the small dead zone), then press as needed/wanted. If I'm too quick to press, then it jerks at first. Takes a while to make that motion become automatic. It can be a real nuisance when off road on rough patches, I have to work at it. One of the Throttle Commander type units will probably help if it's worse than mine. |
I had a similar problem in my 2010 Trail. For me it was only when I was at low speeds, often when turning a corner in a residential area, I would take the corner hit the gas and it took a second for it to get going and shift gears. There was a technical service bulletin for it. They updated some software and I had the transmission fluid replaced. The issue largely went away. I've noticed it only a handful of times in the 3+ years since.

Clean the MAF?
