If you knew about the Stutter before your purchase would you still buy your Legacy GT

I am taking my car in for some warranty issues, and I am thinking about seeing if they will fix the studder for mine too, but to be honest, I am not sure exactly what the studder is. I just want it fixed under warranty while I still can if it is an issue. I have been at Cobb stage 1 since the first week I bought the car, and I think that may have fixed it, but I'd rather have it fixed on the stock ECU while I can. Can anyone specifically define how the studder feels, so I can see if it is really a problem for my LGT?

 

Thanks, Brett

SOMEONE come over and take me for a ride. I have never been in a LGT that "studders".

 

I have had people try to re-create it for me... but I can't feel it.

 

Wanna recreate it? I finally had it yesterday in a forehead-slapping moment.

 

I was slowing down in a left-only lane, when the light turned green. I was almost stopped, and trafic took off more quickly then I expected. I hit the gas, and got the stutter. I then noticed two things:

 

1. I was just under 2K

2. I had forgotten to downshift to 1st, and I was still in 2nd gear

 

Calling myself the dumbass I was, I downshited and all was well.

Well i had a 14 degree startup this morning and after letting the car warm, it performed great. No studder, just keep it out of boast and your fine.

No studder, just keep it out of boost and your fine.
