Are CVT/automatic transmission issues related to engine sputtering o r jerky acceleration in Alsvin?

Some owners confuse transmission shudder with engine sputtering. Is there a pattern where poor transmission response mimics engine performance issues?

Yes, often confused with engine sputtering. Symptoms include:

Delayed gear engagement o r jerky shifts at low speeds.

CVT hesitation during incline o r overtakes mimics sputtering.

Shuddering under light throttle that feels like engine misfire.

✅ Check transmission fluid quality ATF, and update the TCU Transmission Control Unit software if available.
