  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

I've recently had my 2012 5.0 R-SPEC in the dealership. After I got it back, my power/response is way down. This car used to instantly smoke the tires at half throttle if I pressed ESC off. Now it seems to not have the pick up like before and it even granny shifts in manual mode at around 4k rpm. Any one had this issue? Is the R-SPEC a special tune?
 
They probably disconnected your battery. Your car needs to relearn your driving habits. Give it a few days of aggressive driving and she'll be back to her old self.

I've actually had the car back for over a month, replaced oil and filter as well but still seems the power isn't what it was before
