I have a 2006 Outack Limited 2.5i Sedan, with the automatic and I have the hesitation when I take off from a stop, it is not a noticeable any other time. It really dosen't feel like a drive by wire hesitation, ore like it is boging down. If I pump the gas pedal I can get around the problem. The dealer said that there is no problem. K&N just came out with a replacement air filter for the 06, I am going to try that for now. I have 11,000 miles on it and other than that annoyance I love the car.
