Hey guys, when i start my car up after work...or in the morning it doesnt hesitate to start. but when im driving it in my complex it feels like it went to bog out (but it never dies on me cause i give it gas) i just did an oil change about well 3k miles ago...im in for another one. what could be causeing this. its kinda hard to explain. but then after about 5 minutes of driving it feels normal again.
OH YHEA: when i go over a speed bump i here a little pop come from my strut. it doesnt pop until i clear the speed bump though is this sticking action going on or something?
Thanks.

My engine does the same thing. It just does not enjoy the cold. Once everything is nice and warm, it's a beast again.
As long as:
-It runs great when fully warmed, and
-I get good mileage (33 last check)
I won't give much of a damn about it.

Its really annoying though grrrr....oh well i still love my baby, as long as its not anything that is going to kill the engine after a long while. it just started doing this a month ago or so.

I have the same problem, so I might be of some help you may need a new lower ball joint cause it could be going bad.

I had the same problem with mine when the car was cold. I replaced the O2 sensor and have had no problems since.
