Transmission ghost town
Well, the transmission forum is a dusty, desolate place.

Car Info: MMVI AW WRX STI
Ah I think I know what you're describing...just the driveline lash of the WRX/SubaruAWD...when you take your foot off the gas there are a lot of gears that have load on them that have to settle down. The WRX is not the smoothest of cars when you come off the throttle jerkily.

OK, cool - thanks for the info - that makes sense. I was worried that maybe i had done something wrong or whatever - i like to think of myself as a good driver as i grew up racing things - but i definetley dont put it past myself to screw somthing up.
edit - btw, this is my first WRX, and ive only had it for a few weeks - before i had a bulletproof OBS - so i just wanna make sure that im treating my new baby right.

Our cars were made to be driven hard. I haven't heard of many engines blowing, it's just the trannies that are having trouble with all the power.
