Car acceleration
Asked by Danatiman Jul 18, 2016 at 06:05 PM about the 2005 Chevrolet Malibu
Question type: Maintenance & Repair
OK so i have a 2005 chevy malibu and when
I start the car and put in gear it is fine after
driving for a little bit I'll lose acceleration and
it won't accelerate but the engine is revving.
Then I pull over and turn the car off and wait
5 secs and start up and put back in gear and
it drives fine again then once it starts driving
and everything starts flowing it will do it
again mainly if I sit at a light or something.
Any idea what could cause this problem.

Well, it could be a speed sensor problem or transmission? I hope for your sake it's the former.
Depending upon how many miles and the overall condition of your car, you may want to consider getting rid of it. Reason; see this. http://www.carcomplaints.com/Chevrolet/Malibu/2005/
Play it will go into gear reversed into drive drive it fall while Dan when it’s like when you gets warm it will not get any gas in the RPMs is not moving and plus is not changing gears
Look up catalytic converter see if those are your symptoms
