Im here again with something that i cant quite pin point or explain ill do my best. Car starts and runs great.. For a while it seems.. In other words after driving say around town or maybe on a short cruise for a few miles the car then eventually feels sluggish. Almost like my car wants to stall out in first at a red light. It becomes hard to get it off first gear. Almost feels like the car loses power. Ive noticed also that when its hot out it sorta makes it worst for some reason. I dont get it it starts runs good clutch engages properly but after a good drive eventually i notice at a stop or red light that the clutch is harder to engage, feels like there less power and runs kindabad!! Car was automatic now its manual and i noticed this problem even when the car was automatic before.Any idea anyone????

I suggest you scan the ECU for fault codes as a first step. This might help to pinpoint the problem.
