I put my auto(with shift kit) into first and from a standing start i floored it. When i changed to second the engine lost a huge amount of power. It was like traction control kicked in, but i had turned traction off.
Whats that all about, any ideas?

Ignition retard?
Mine basically stops accelerating for 0.5seconds then leaps forwards in second.

Cihan, that is because you don't have a shift kit.

When you change from 1st - 2nd, the car should THUNDER forward regardless.

So obviously its not supposed to happen, cause its never happened before. And now that i think about it, it did it for longer than 0.5 seconds.
What would cause this to happen?

Do some more tests. Same thing again, then try starting in 2nd with ECT=Normal. A once-off isn't much to go by.

You'd think it would be a good idea to check your transmission fluid if you're having problems.

If all your gears are shifting fine (and fast) when your on full throttle in Drive then you need not to worry. There is no point doing manual shifts in an auto. Makes no difference at all. If you want to hold out the gears then take overdrive off and use the power setting.
