Hi, 

Im new here and in the world of cars(I passed driving school 3 months ago). I took my granpas Seat Cordoba 1.4 petrol with 75HP. Its first petrol car i have driven and somethings weird. When I press throtle a bit more than usual its like it goes to neutral, rpm is going up but speed is going down and it goes like that for a 2-3 seconds. Why could that be?

P.S. Im driving my mothers Corsa c 1.7 DI and fathers Peugeot 406 2.0 HDI and they drive normally. This thing happens only on that seat and only for me.

Your clutch is most likely slipping. Probably time to get your transmission checked might be overdue for a change.

If your fluid levels are OK, then you may have to take it to a shop that can read the computer. The engine computer may have gone into safe mode. A check engine light does not always come on.
