I had a similar problem with my Honda. I removed the heat shield from the exhaust manifold and found half the studs broken.

[sjrobinson]

Whats the name of the attachment I need? I can’t find anything that will say.

[sjrobinson]

I redid the entire exhaust myself- including the manifold. I know its not the exhaust.

[sjrobinson]

I have been doing many tests. Theres the audio of fluctuating exhaust. Its kinda hard to record the actual occurrence though. Its gone from a surging to a: ‘I turn on the car, let it go into closed loop, drive down to the end of the block. accelerate agai

Well my Subaru ended up being a transmission problem.

[sjrobinson]

Im gonna be mad if that clutch is going. It was replaced a year ago so it really shouldnt be. It just happens at cold starts and after refueling. It doesnt feel like a slipping clutch when the car fails to accelerate as much, the RPMs do not go up. Even a

Theres not much from the dashboard you can see of the issue aside from the occasional low idle that fixes itself._x000D_
