Engine lag at sloped traffic junction

Did that during drive up to Genting last Nov.....dun feel any difference either......
I also notice that the problem is worst if stuck in traffic jam......car feel no power to move off at all unless floor the accelerator....then even only move at a snail pace...sometimes cars behind also honk honk....
Frightening experience was when stuck at Orchard jam...then went up slope to Taka shopping center.....car move at a snail pace and i got to use L gear to inch my way up....tot that it was going to die on me.....

The easiest way for faster pickup is not to floor the accelarator. You should do simple step on acceralator and
release and press again immediately, the pick up will kick in faster. I did try floor accerelator before but not much help.

After I stopped my vehicle (latio sport premium, 06 model) at a sloped traffic junction , the moving off is very very slow. I floor my accelerator but the pick up is still very slow. I'm installed pivot 3 drive and the mode is on SP 7 most of the time but that doesn't help. My FC is also getting from bad to worse. I have changed my spark plugs, changed my air filter, done TB cleaning. Initially the engine response became better. Now it has reverted back to its old self. Not sure if its due to my air con compressor. There's a loud hissing sound coming from the engine bay, probably from the air con compressor when I switch on the air con during engine cold start. Could the compressor affect FC and engine response? Does any bros have any advice to this? Engine lag and bad FC...this is very depressing :weep: :weep: :weep:

Hi,
I do have the hissing sound when i switched on my aircon... I guess it is normal cause my home aircon also produces similar noise. As for the engine lag, i could only think of your spark plug misfiring or CVT transmission fault. When my vehicle is stationary with the gear engaged at "D" or "L" or "R", theres a squeaking sound from under carriage... It dissapears after i engage gears at "N" or "P"...
Must be thinking it could be the characteristics of CVT. But that i'll have to ask TCM. So i hope someone could enlighten me before i go to TCM
I do not have engine lag when moving off from slope or moving up the slope but it gave me some doubts when free wheeling down slope especially at Benjamin Sheares bridge exiting at Rochor exit(any other slope is ok). When free wheeling or in other words, release the pedal fully, the engine goes into engine braking and RPM shows 3000rpm...
I was just wondering if it's the characteristics of CVT transmission. Anyone had this experience before?
PS: I would go to reliable 3rd party workshop and have some diagnostic check on the engine lag. TCM could sometimes hide things and not fully say the full extend of the problem/s. Had such experience before but it was with Motor Image.

if you release accelerator when going down 'steep enough' slope, engine brake will kick in n rpm will show 3000 thereabout
