My MO is approaching 12.5k since late April. It's always performed wonderfully and consistently until the last week or so.
When driving in the city, the RPMs used to stay ~1200 which contributed also to engine braking when the accelerator was not pressed. Also, when driving up to 50mph, pressing on the accelorator gently kept the RPMs at the same level while speeding up.
Recently, I would press the gas pedal the same gentle way and my RPMs would jump to 2000 and drop back to 1200. When I let the gas go, then it will either drop to 1200 (if above), stay there for a second or two, then drop to 1000, or drop to 1000 from 1200! The net effect is that there is no engine braking and more coasting.
This has been happening pretty consistently so I'm not sure what to make of it. If the CVT can stay at 1200RPM I'd rather have it do that than jump to 2000 each time i had to marginally increase speed.
Anyone else experience this?
