2008 Subaru Exiga GT - CVT gearbox/transmission issue

hi,

I'm looking for a CVT specialist in the London/SE area..  I've owned my 2008 Subaru Exiga 2.0 GT (YA5 EJ205 engine) for over year now and it has to be one of the best car's i've owned.

In the last week (on 2 occasions) my CVT gearbox/transmission has caused the car to dramatically lurch forward when moving off from a standing start.. if I continued to drive the car it would have a problem trying to find the correct gear.. Once car is turned off and started, all is well.

I'm worried the issue will get worse and more frequent and so need to find a CVT specialist to investigate and fix the issue ASAP. No error codes are returned.

 

thanks

update on the above.. All is resolved now and was linked to a faulty Turbine Speed Sensor 2, which is located on the Valve Body.
