Polling drivers 2001/02 T 5 with manual..pulsing on hard accelleration? V70-XC70

posted by  someone claiming to be jeff on  Mon Aug 26 21:13 CST 2002 [RELATED]

My 2001 T5 manual feels weird under full throttle acceleration. When I give it full throttle the power flow is not as smooth as my 94 850 turbo automatic which has a smooth fluid delivery of power. The new car feels like it has a mild case of "surging" as the rpms build up. I don't think it is missing as no fault lights come on, but is a less than lineare flow of power, kind of a mild stuttering that I can feel. Most noticable when in 2nd or 3rd gear and giving full power from say.. 1500 rpm and up.It felt the same way before and after the IPD chip mod.
How does your feel? Any thoughts? Jeff
