So this issue only happens only about once a day or every other day. The car will all of the sudden out of nowhere feel sluggish, when I drive into the high seventies the rpm's are over 2500 rpm. When I come to a complete stop, the car moves sluggish forward.

So far the remedy is for me to park the car then turn it off and then back on (I do this within seconds) and the car runs fine for the rest of the day.

No check engine light while this is happening.
