ok so this is hard to explain but it just started maybe 3 weeks ago at most.. every once in a while when i take off from a complete start the car feels like its restricted.. it will hold at 2000 rpm? and then finally catch up when it does this its almost like im in neutral and the car is just being rev'ed up? any ideas..kinda getting worried

 

I am guessing you have a cvt. There is either a transmission fault, or datalink communication failure between engine and trans. Does it do it all the time or intermittent? I would check if there are any fault codes in the trans or engine. If not then I do not know what it could be. CVT owners may be able to answer you better than me (5spd)

 

From what i understand it sounds like it doesnt move at 2000rpm or delays a bit. On mine, from 0 if i accelerate it stalls a bit around 2-3k rpm but if i let go of the accelerator and accelerate again it goes higher.

 

This seems to be a commonly reported anomaly with CVT owners. For whatever reason, every once and a while the engine bogs down for a second or two from a stop, as if its not in the right gear or something. I've had it happen to me plenty of times, not really often or consistently, just randomly happens. I would say it seemed to happen more often on really hot days over the summer, but idk. If its not a constant or common problem you should be fine. For the most part it seems to be a harmless fluke every CVT owner encounters.

 

try to reset the ecu and see. disccont the battery.. 10 minute after let it ldel for 2 minute before u drive out. i have cvt too i never had problem with it. one think i don't like the cvt can't red line am plan either tune it or turbo kit on it.

 

I have tried this before and still getting the same issue. It makes me feel like the car doesn't have enough power.

 

i drove a few cars that have done this and they have all been manumatic transmissions, and only does it when you're in regular auto mode. if this is the case either drive it in manual mode or maybe get rid of it for a standard. i hate those kind of transmissions they are usually junk, unless you have the money to get an evo mr.
