Hi folks, I have a 2008 TSX 6MT. Now it has 12,000 miles or so. Recently I noticed that when I am keeping the car at constant speed, e.g. 5th gear at 50MPH. Then I lift off the gas completely for couple second, and the gently apply the gas again. I feel the car hesitates to accelerate right away. It feels like a little jerking on the running engine once I touch the gas before the engine picks up the speed.

Does anyone of you have the similar experience?

Please advise,

what you're experiencing is from a combination of the drive by wire system and the computer shutting off the injectors when you take your foot off of the gas.

this is completely normal and is nothing to be concerned about.

The bouciness is coming from the relief springs in the clutch as well as the engine mounts. The DBW throttle does not do off idle particularly smoothly but you can learn to be better with it.
