I wouldn't say it was severe, but it certainly didn't feel normal, as we hadn't experienced anything like it in the first 250 miles and haven't again since. It felt a bit like a standard feels when you put it in a gear too high and try to get going from a slow start. That's why I think it's transmission related. It could certainly be a slipping clutch plate if the CVT has one. My wife and I both love the car and that's why we're waiting to see if it was just a fluke due to break-in. I guess we should call the dealer or bring it in just to get the problem on record. I just don't want to get stuck with a lemon or have the dealer start ripping the car apart and putting it back together without actually finding any problem. I'd rather live with the problem until the 09s come out and trade it in!
