Hello,
I have a 2005 9-2x linear automatic with 120,000
When I'm driving at speed, take my foot off accelerator and coast, then re-apply the accelerator my car is doing a sort of jerky or stuttering thing.
It happens when I'm going uphill, not downhill
If I apply the accelerator more forcefully and car downshifts then it stops but if I apply the accelerator gradually it keeps stuttering for a few seconds.
During the stuttering I have basically no power.
This problem does not happen when I start from a stop, it's only when I'm moving.
It was happening occasionally at first (maybe once on my 30min commute) but has started happening more frequently
The check engine light just came on
I've read a few different posts and seems like DIC, spark plugs, fuel pump, etc come up
I've talked with a few friends and they think it's more likely a slipping transmission since once it downshifts it stops
Looking for any advice from other 9-2x owners who may have experienced the same issue
