Surging feeling?
My car these past two days has developed this almost surging feeling. Its not as smooth pulling off in first. Its really hard to keep it smooth. Ive tried to keep it smooth but it just surge/jerks almost. I dont think its the clutch though because its in every gear, no matter what speed or rpms.. It just hasnt felt smooth the past two days, I just get this surging feeling especially if im cruising at any speed and im using my foot to stay at that speed. It still gives a surging feeling. Yet when I put cruise control on its smooth like nothing is wrong. Anyone have any idea what it could be? Maybe the injectors need to be cleaned??
I guess my car being for sale will be on hold lol.
Also no CEL and im positive no vaccum leaks anywhere.

Only thing I removed was the intake but nothing else.. I reset the ecu as I always do. I even let it idle for 10-15 mins and then I drive normal for a while to make sure it picks up on the changes.
Ill check that out again but I remember looking at it yesterday and its just as responsive as anytime before. Doesnt look loose at all. Could it be the sensor on the throttle body? I thinl that would throw a code though.

This may be a pain but, if u can put the intake u removed back on and see if it still happens? If that fixes problem, could be a tune error with ecu not picking the diff. Or maybe youll find something u missed, i know ive forgotten the vac hose once luckly i found it before startup tho

I checked everything over again and didnt find anything wrong. I reset the ecu. Went driving around the neigborhood and it feels smooth again. Hopefully it doesnt come back lol.
Sucks that your selling the car though... Id love to come pick one up I want a manual so bad but any I find for sale are SO far away from me. haha
I had this same issue and it ended up being the apps sensor..
