I have noticed recently on occasion when I’m waiting at a light and I press down on the gas to accelerate the car will stall climb rpms and then later launch. However, this is done on rare occasion so I’m kind of confused as to what is the issue.

However, I was told to check my speed sensor. Do you think this can be a factor also?

If its happening while driving I would say speed sensor
