My CVT has developed a new trick!

For about one second the car feels like it has been taken out of drive... the revs stay the same, the car just fades away then kicks back in again... very odd. It has only done it a few times, I hoping it's only the hot weather here that is causing it.

It has been 41 C here the last few days

Anyone else had a similar problem?

Hi there,
I just joined the forum today because I've been having the same problem. It feels like the car has stalled. Has happened to me 3 or 4 times before. Just happened to me tonight. I was driving slowing, not gassing, because I was coming up to a stop light and when I wen to gas up when the light turned green, it did not respond and felt like the engine cut out. Have you had any more problems?

I had my first service and had a software update, V37 I think. It has not happened again
