"Bogging" in first gear

I have tried this with the VDC off and it still occurs...but have not taken it into the dealer yet, primarily based on the 48 page thread posted above where others have taken it in and the dealer was no help.

Anyway...my apologies if my response was short, I definitely know how to drive the car, and am not taking off in 3rd gear. This is primarily a 1st gear problem.

I have noticed this does not occur in the mornings when the air temp and the car is cool...but as soon as it heats up...Bog city.
