two or three days ago, I began to notice acceleration hestitation after shifting gears (all gears). My car hasn't made any abnormal noises and I have not noticed leakage. Today, the acceleration has gotten worse and I noticed an odor coming from under the hood. Earlier today I was parked on flat ground, when I put my car in reverse it took a long time to back out of the parking space and after shifting to first to drive forward. I drove my car home immediately. I parked in the driveway which has a slight hill, I tried to back up in order to park on the flat surface of the driveway but there wasn't enough power and the car only moved forward. I had a couple of leaks last fall which were fixed. I have a new timing belt, serpentine belt, thermostat & housing, water pump and a few other parts ( I will have to look at receipts to specify other parts replaced). I did not get a tune up last October/November because I was told I did not need one at that time. What's wrong with my car?
