I have a 2008 Hyundai Veracruz Ltd with V-6 engine. It has a problem of******** at low speeds (30-35 mph) orund my neighborhood streets. Additionally, when starting from a dead stop. it takes a little extra push on the gas pedal to get the car going instead of a smooth start from the stop sign. I saw the article dated 12/23/2008 which souds similar to mine. Any resolution for this similar problem? Also, where is the oil filter for this vehicle?

Lack of acceleration,chugging,hesitating********,bogging,misfiring etc. could be caused by one of the following below

Oxygen sensor.
Catalytic converter.

EGR Valve

Note:If it doesn't apply disregard it and keep testing.
