Temporal autocorrelation seems to be a contagious process... even for emails. I received yours three times in 5 minutes. Concerning your question, I am no expert in time series, but you may also try ordinary least squares after 'removing' autocorrelation. This can be achieved by regression onto a lagged variable (see lag.listw in spdep, which can also be applied to temporal context), or onto eigenvectors of a temporal proximity matrix.
