This could be the old faithful misfire code that we all love. Basically, your car "thinks" it hears knock but its actually coming from your transmission. Dealership will not find a cure for it.

This happened to my RX7(FD). Feels like boost cut or fuel cut. When its cold, better than warmed up. In my case, Apex seal (rotary only) and the turbo were the problem. they both were blown. hope this helps you!
