Hmmm....
I have had a hesitation problem with my '00 SE since I bought it used three weeks ago(49K miles). The problem usually occurs under heavy throttle and when i have a half a tank or less of gas. It has been not been acting up as much since that intial tank of gas (filled by the dealer), but when I go in for my "free" service next week, I can bitch because I had complained about this before I bought the car. The hard part was it was masked by that damn AC compressor clutch kicking in at first....but since I have experienced the problem at freeway speeds (slowed down to 30 before it cleared) as well, they BETTER fix it.
