Hi folks,
I own a 2.5diesel sorento mk1, and i have a problem with the car which is worst in heavy traffic.When i let the clutch out the car surges away without me touching the throttle and after a few seconds the engine slows to normal, if i change up to second the same thing happens.The engine idles normally when stationary.It has been twice to the dealer but on both occasions it was a case of no fault found. Anyone else had this problem,or have any ideas as to the cause?



Cheers Bob.
