Ok guys an gals so i drive a 08 es cvt an when ive been on the expressway ya know i have to cut it loose a bit, an yesterday was the second time but i will be drivin it an ill be doin about 90-100mph an the rpms will just go down an the gas pedal will feel like its not working for a second but then it will come back. this has only happened twice, but anyone got an idea whats going on? like i said it only happens when im on the expressway. an ive pushed my car past 110 before so its not like it isnt used to it.
naw, but what i dont get is ive been on the express way before an it never happens just yesterday i went to pass someone an like gunned it got it from 75-85 then passed em an right as i passed em it just left off but then came back. i dont like it
same thing happened to me i floor it when going around 80 and for alittle second the pedal feels like it stops working and the rpm's drop. so i let off the gas and it'll start working again. also happened to me twice b4...
I've got an 08 CVT and I've had it at 125 with the RPM's as high as they'd go and this has never happened to me. I'm sure since are CVT's are fairly new concept that there are a few models out there that have problems. I used to work in the auto manufacturing industry, if it looks good, send it, if it looks okay, send it, and if it looks shitty and Mitsubishi needs parts, send it......You can always worry about a part sort or recall later...lol!
