My forester noticeably jerks when letting off the accelerator and when going back on, even when doing it extremely delicately. Coming off throttle, there's a short second then you feel like a surge / jerk. When applying throttle, it sort of jerks a bit heading back up the revs (rev gauge and move back and forward). Much more noticeable at lower speeds but still does it through the gears at higher speeds.

 

Sometimes second gear, having a tiny but constant amount of throttle applies, the car will jerk back and forward kinda violently while sitting over 2k rpm.


This was worse before I got it tuned, but it's still quite persistent. Reading up about could be a million things.. I've recently had spark plugs changed and the car scanned, which pulled no fault codes.

It's not a biggy, just makes driving slightly unenjoyable.

I’d be running obd2 and checking the pedal and throttle readings dont leap around. 
 

Have just ordered me an OBD2. Will give them a look once it arrives.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
