Hesitation, cutting in/out at low rpm
 

Was wondering if any V6 owners experience this.
When accelerating slowly, conservatively, do you feel the the engine or tranny cutting in/out slightly? I'm not sure if its the engine or if the tranny can't decide when to shift. Happens in town around 1000 to 1500 rpms.
I've had cars do this on occasion but not as pronounced as my 2012 v6.

Thanks!

Yes, but it hasn't done it for quite a while. Either that or I don't notice it anymore. Seems to do it when it is colder out. On cooler days when light on the gas pedal taking off once in a great while it will act like it is slow between changing gears the motor revs a little like it would if you missed a gear in a manual tranny then it will shift into the next gear. It only revs up about 100 or 200 RPM then changes gears. I just figure it is the quirks of owning a 6 speed auto.

Dean. :thumbup:

I think I experienced that before I got the Ported Throttle Body, but I haven't felt it since then. No more hesitation!

Im assuming you have an auto. .

Looks like this may be the culprit, taking this to the dealer to get it checked out. Thanks for the responses.

^i pretty much always experience this driving from a dead stop to 2k rpm. Looking into a vmax throttle body.:iono:

sounds like the torque converter... mine has been replaced twice now ;-/
