Hard lurch, don't know what it was
My car is basically all stock. Was driving in traffic today. Stop and go kind of stuff. One time I start going from a stop in first. Right about when I let out the clutch, can't remember exactly when, there was a sudden lurch. First I thought I had hit a rock or some obstacle under my car which caused resistance. But there was nothing there.
It also felt like a sudden fuel cut off. But then right after everything got back to normal. It's not like I let the clutch out super fast or anything, just a normal start from zero. IDK if it was just an "occasional thing" these engines do, or if it's a sign of some underlying issue that could get worse? Any ideas or similar experiences? |
Did you perhaps spin a wheel with TC on? Was there a nasty lump in the road that might have triggered the anti-hop function?

I had a similar experience it's happened recently probably like 3 times randomly. I didn't think anything of at first but the fact that it happened more than twice has me cautious... no cel and none of the driver assist were off either...

I reckon it's just a quirk......;) |
Mine does it once in a while as well. Feels kinda like how the car jumps off the throttle really quickly when you crest a hill in cruise control but much harder.
|
Yeah at first i didn't think much of it but 2 times in particular its been cold start but for the most part it has been while the car was warmed up... curious what the issue may be...
|
interesting that others have had the same experience. kinda glad that in not the only one. mine was with the car warmed up, no driver aids turned off. I have about 5200 miles.

My brz does it too sometimes. I think its just a quirk of the tc system when starting off if there are bumps or sand the tires want to chirp easily

This used to happen to me before I figured out that my DW Fuel Pump was installed incorrectly. Whole thread about it :) Could also be TC acting up like they said but if it's the pump, it's completely random and can force a fuel cut in any driving situation.

My two thoughts were:
1 - Were you runnning low on fuel? turning with nearly empty fuel can cause air to enter the FI system. 2 - A patch of ice (then I noticed "Miami"). My experince living in Fl from CO: If it gets below 55deg in Fl. the locals don artic parkas while the CO natives walk around in shorts... |

noticed you use this ram air intake. Maybe you should get a tune. http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=55447 Also noticed you hit something. Get your front end checked out. |
this soudns like the TC / VCS to me as the standard setting is very agressive - feel like someone has turned the engien off briefly
switch in to 'sport' and it should stop doing it |
