2013 Legacy jerks when accelerating past 20 mph


Recommended Posts

So, my 2013 Legacy 2.5i Limited with just over 140000 miles has been acting weird lately.

When I accelerate from a stop and pass 20 mph, the car feels like it suddenly looses power then jolts back to having it. It’s really jarring and feels wrong. It’s kind of like the car stutters for a second.

When it happens, the RPMs on my tachometer stay the same, they don’t fluctuate like my older car that had a transmission problem, so I’m praying it’s not a transmission issue.

Also, it seems to happen less when I accelerate faster opposed to a slower steady acceleration.

Does anyone know what it could be? 

Anything helps! Thanks!

no warning lights on the dash when this is happening?  when was the last time you had your spark plugs replaced?
