I didn't follow the break in procedure and haven't noticed any hesitation in mine

Thanks for the offer, but I am 5 hours away.

There is definitely something going on with it. I haven't tried the battery disconnect. I may pull the fuel fuses too and see if I can't get it all reset.

Ditto unless any TC mode is active and thinking when you throw it a curve ball (like quickly mashing the gas pedal at a low rpm) this will cause hesitation for a split second, smooth throttle application remedies this.... My break in consisted of 400 miles of 4k rpm blasts each followed by a cool down period then raised the rpm limit 200 rpm's every additional 100 miles. So 500 miles 4200 rpm, 600 miles 4400 rpm, 700 miles 4600 rpm, 800 miles 4800 rpm, 900 miles 5000 rpm and so on. Honestly, felt like the rings seated at 300 miles on the clock. Started breaking the tires loose much easier. I hold the TC button down for 7 magical seconds everytime I start the car disabling all nannies other than mag ride and ABS of course. By far the funnest mode

Here is my tell of woe that will hopefully make you laugh. Well I disconnected the negative terminal in the battery. left it off for half an hour. All was fine until I went to ratchet the nut back on the terminal then lost it, and it appears to have gone to the 4th dimension. I took the entire battery out, ran all under with a magnet, got my air hose shot all out in that sumbitch haha, nothing came out. DAMN IT'S DONE VANISHED. I must add, all this just right before we are to go on a trip today. Wife comes out, "What's wrong, What's Wrong" just barraging me and I calmly say "I don't want to talk about it right now, i need to think" So I get another nut, put it on there, we're all good. Except the part where I CALMLY said "I don't want to talk about it right now, I need to think." I guess I because an asshole right there and had to apologize before she would go with me. I to this moment blame this all on fbodfather.
Oh, yeah, the car, loosened up a lot motor wise and no more stumble at 5K.
