sorry to post about part throttle hesitation (not another thread!!!)

I have an '06 Legacy GT, and after about 800 miles, found a hesitation under load, part throttle, in 5th gear (A/T), normal mode.

Up unitl this mileage, the car ran flawlessly. Noticed it at around 3K rpm, under slight throttle openings. Not consistent though.

Are the '06's suffering from the same trouble that I have read about with the '05's?

I am not looking forward to battling a dealer about this, especially since I have an automotive background and really dislike being BS'd and talked down to by a service writer.

My buddy was complaining ofr Stuttering in his '06. Said it even had a pretty violent stall out once. VisualFX is his SN, I will see if he can chime in.

thanks for the info. Not looking foward to this at all.

It's very doubtful...as all the '06's come with the revised ECU programming. I'd take it in and have them scan the ECU, sounds like a hard fault somewhere (i.e. faulty sensor, solenoid, etc.)

OK thank you.
