2018 Honda CRV surges from idle intermittently
My new CRV (3000 miles) surges from stop
occasionally, like one time out of 50 normal starts.
It’s like my foot is suddenly on a stone. Gentle
press, nothing. Press harder, nothing again. Press
still harder, car leaps forward. The “stone” feeling
warns of the coming surge, so I’ve learned to ride
the brake w left foot to avoid hitting the car in front.
Haven’t noticed the problem when accelerating
from coasting to corner speed, so maybe the
problem appears only at 700 rpm idle.
