vp running problem need help

[joshooaahh]

i have a vp auto v6 and i recently changed my oil and filter and i spilt a little oil over the side down by the headers so i took it around the corner to the car wash and used the engine wash they had (this is because i didnt want the engine to smoke from the oil) and after i had washed and litely rinsed i got in the car to drive and the car was lagging and very slow to move and making a strange sound and jolting as if the car was coughing,
this happened once with a vs of mine but it stopped within five minutes,
i managed to get the car home and i drove today and it wasnt nearly as bad but now when i start to move from a complete stop at the lights or so it does it again but goes back to normal as soon as it changes to second gear.
i kno that i need a new gearbox but i didnt have this problem before i went to the carwash..
any ideas besides not to go back to the carwash lol

Run it for a while and let the heat dry out any water that may have gotten into sensors, plus, ign leads etc..
Should come good after a while

Also try hitting all your electrical connections that you think got wet with a quick squirt of WD40(or similar), then blow them all dry, and all should come good.
