| The steering sway wobble shimmy at highway speeds is still present. with vdc off it is substantially less sway feeling and steering correction. if you drive straight, you will have to continually correct the steering to overcome to above. about 800 miles i now get a vibration you can feel in the steering wheel. it feels unsafe. other dangerous cvt occurances are: - in 'd' the car surges occasionally when stopped, like an unintended acceleration surge. scary, feels like the car is going to take off and feels unsafe. - while driving in cvt manual mode, lets say 2nd gear into a highway exit curve and you let off of the gas pedal, car continues at same speed and rpm!!!!! does not reduce rpm or speed until you hit the brake. scary if you drive on a straight road and let off of the gas pedal car will reduce rpm and speed. -sometimes if your stopped and go to turn the wheel before you release the brake, engine will raise rpm quite a bit causing surge in power. scary | |||
