I notice that sometimes when I fire the car up I always warm it up to the first mark, and sometimes when I go to press the gas to accelerate out on to the highway for the first time, usually the engine isn't all the way warmed up but close, its like it studders the first time I give it gas in the morning, as im driving through the neighborhood I don't notice it because its light throttle, but as soon as I need a little pick up, the first time its like it studders before it goes, then never does it again. Scenario is shift at 2500 or so out of first, then soon as I get back on it for second gear I get a quick studder then its like nothing ever happend, Anyone else notice this, its like the drive by wire system needs a quick warm up
Any feeback?

Yes, I've seen the same kind of thing. Almost like the throttleplate has some varnish build up on it, and it is sticking. Once it breaks free for the first time, all is good, but that first acceleration of the day is a bit iffy.
