Start of CVT transmission issues?
Pulling into Staples and going 10 mph or so. I let off the gas and it threw us back then lurched forward. Scared the crap out of us and never happened before. A few months back while accelerating we felt a bang and wondered wth was that about. So starting to wonder if this is the start of transmission issues? Some times when I let if the gas I can feel a slight bang.

I was actually going to create a similar thread. Lately, my car has been having this kind of shaking/vibrating as I'm accelerating from a stop. Let's say, I'm at a red light, then the light turns green...I hit the gas. As it starts to approach 20 MPH, there's this shaking vibration that happens momentarily (seemingly as it's switching gears). The only thing is, it doesn't happen all the time, but it's starting to happen enough to notice. Also, it doesn't happen higher up in speed...only in the 20MPH range.
Is this a common thing with CVT transmissions or should I take her in? 2016 SR Max.
Thanks in advance for any input.

My service guy said, say "Judder" too. Fairly easy to fix if it is the valve body which shows up on the car scan. By the way, my 2016 had a mild case of this at 31000 miles. Car was fixed in 4 hours and never an issue After that fix.

Sr. moment here. Yes, it is judder, but I was close. What a strange term.

judキder
/ˈjədər/
verb
- (especially of something mechanical) shake and vibrate rapidly and with force.
It's weird how you can go your whole life and not hear a word that other people use every day. I have used judder a bunch of times in my life and know the term well for some reason. But I'm 36 and just last year someone used the word "chagrin" and I could have sworn they weren't speaking English lmao.

Any guess what the vale replacement would cost out of warranty? I'm new to CVTs and curious if the subtle "lurching" when coming to a stop is just a characteristic of CVT, or if it's problematic? It's very subtle and almost mimics an older normal auto-trans downshifting when slowly coming to a stop. Many thanks!

I知 going through this too with my car. I just got it. But when I turn corners it acts like it痴 loosing power and it takes awhile it to go again. Also when I break or accelerate at low speed it feels like the power is all over the place. I already have bad anxiety about cars and now I知 scared for when it actually does give out lol
