about a week ago I notices that when I shifted into 2nd and 3rd gear it sort of bogded down. Since then it stopped bogging...but there is a definite loss of power. I took it into the dealership and the tech went on a test drive with me. He noticed it too....but then when they called me they said there was no problems found. I know for sure there is an issue...I've had my car for almost 2 years and drive it everyday. Has anyone else had power loss issues ?

i had the same problem, but it was just a vacuum leak coming from one of the silicon connectors on my cold air intake. You might also want to check if you fouled any one of your spark plugs. I remember i fould my plugs on my civic from using too much of a fuel additive.

stick....i thought it might have been the clutch..but its not...and no mil light either

if my spark plug is fouled doesnt that mean misfires ? and misfires should trip the Mil light...right ?
