Bucking under load

I have a 06 997 cabriolet, 6-speed ... the other night the car was bucking slightly under load, and seemed lethargic. Idles well, revs strongly when not in gear.

Coincidentally, or not, the car was pretty low on gas (30 miles range) and exhibited the problem on the way to the gas station to fuel it up. However, the problem continued after the tank was full.

The check engine light did not come on, so I assume it didn't throw any codes. Ideas?

Just because your CEL light isn't on doesn't mean that it didn't throw a fault. If you have a Durametric you should check to see if it threw any codes as a starting point.

I don't have a Durametric, but I did check with an Actron OBD2 scanner and it did not detect any codes.
