I hit a dip the other day and now when I accelerate it take alot longer to get to the speed. You can hear it being gassed but the acceleration is really slow. My car cam with turbo and has alot of computers since its newwer model. I dont know whats wrong with it. No lights are on the dashboard that would indcate something is wrong.

If the check engine light is on, have the computer scanned. Check under the vehicle to make sure nothing was damaged such as the exhaust system. If it has too much back pressure, it will lose power. Also, check to make sure there are no fuel leaks from the bump. NOTE: Most parts stores will scan the computer for free.
