Hi, all. I live in Barbados and just bought a second hand 2012 legacy CVT 2.0 JDM.
Everything works well except in automatic it doesn’t seem to shift to lower gears when it should. For example when I come to a complete stop and move off it feels like it is starting in second. And even while driving and I want to overtake I have to pump the gas peddle once to get it to shift. It seems like the throttle and the transmission are not synced. What disturbed me the most is when I attempted to reverse up hill from a driveway I had to practically floor the gas to get it out. The paddle shift works perfectly otherwise.
Anyone have any insight where to start? Could it be TPS Or sensor?
Thank you
Prem.
