I dont exactly remember when it was posted but wasnt there a trick to fixing that. I know it involved taking the pedal apart and bringing the pins more upwards so it takes less to actually get the car to accelerate. Dont know if itll help any

can also try the pushing the pedal deal....turn key to on, wait for the idiot lights to go out, then slowly depress pedal to floor, hold it, then slowly let it back up...do this a few times.......it helped, i think, from a stop, but from a roll, it doesn't do much - maybe for you cats with a tune though.....NEED overdrive off, as well....but then when i get movin, i forget to turn it back on [8D]

I have a 2007 V-6 here as well. I was running a bamachips 87 Octane performance tune with a JLT CAI. The tunegreatly improved the way my car shifted gears and cut down on some of the hesitation. However, I recently upgraded to bamachips Race tune and it made a HUGE difference in the way the transmission shifts gears and the overall feel of the car. Doug at bamachips writes tunes for both the Diablo tuner and the X-Cal. You can purchase a single tune file from his website for $50 and upload it directly to your tuner. Best part about it is you get the tune file delivered via email so there is very little waiting. I highly recommend the Race Tune. I am running the 91 Octane version and couldn't be happier!
Good Luck!

i have the exact same issue. i have the 91 performance,race and torque from bama with the c&l intake. but for me it kind of started tohappen when i put a flowmaster on. at first it was annoying me and still kind of does. im thinking it started to happen with me cuz of the flowmaster. maybe more air was being let out and the air ratio has to be adjusted. but im just waiting to put new gears and tlok to give bama a call for the new tune and than tell them about the throttle lag issue.

+1 to taking the pedal apart. That's a project for my next day off.

Mine jerks like that when I get on it. I was told to turn t/c off too.
But sometimes it still does it. I'll try turning off the overdrive.
All this time, my husband thought the "jerk" was me getting scared and letting
off of it..... NOT!
