Newbie OS Owner with a Question
Hey all. New member here and new OS owner. Picked up a '17 OS LE a couple weeks ago. Great car so far but I do have a question about low speed throttle / tranny response. I did some searching on the forum but couldn't find anything that addresses this.
At speeds below 20MPH it is really hard to hold a constant speed. If I lightly press the gas it will speed up, as I start getting to around 20MPH I try to let off the pedal slightly to hold my speed but it feels like the tranny is either "down shifting" or the throttle is cut or a combination of both. So I tend to get this 15-20MPH hunt as I try to feather the throttle.
My community has a speed limit of 20 and I do try to stick to it. I didn't notice this on the test drive but then I never tried to hold this speed during it. Is this normal, something to worry about or will this just clear up as the CVT breaks in?
Other than that it's been great so far. TIA for any insights on this.
