Pulling away in "second" I often get some transmission 'judder'. Not starting from stationary, but accelerating away from a low speed manoeuvre.

I think that the cvt operates with a series of pumps and valves and not with traditional clutch plates. Am I right?

The local dealer felt incapable of helping except to refer me to a much larger dealer some considerable distance away. I have not yet made that visit.

I would like to know if this is something which others my have experienced and, if possible, what a potential diagnosis might be.

Thanks.

Peter
