First, the blah, blah, blah; lol. Technical service bulletins (TSBs) are to help Honda technicians with known issues. Issues noted in TSBs do not necessarily apply to all vehicles. Normal warranty applies. Technical service bulletins are not recalls, unless specifically noted as related to a recall.

If you have an issue with your car, just post the issue in a new thread. If I see it, I'll see if I can find if there is a similar known issue.

 

I am pretty sure all CVT are rubberbandy at very low throttle speeds. The Forrester I have as a loaner acts funny under light throttle (anything under 1500 while accelerating). Other than that, I find the CVT a joy to drive as it is MUCH SMOOTHER overall
