Ive just got a 2011 Legacy and its CVT is nothing like Toyota or Lexus, which I found both to be smooth in operation. Its taking me days to get used to the Subaru and its quirky transmission. It varies between being quick off the mark with little accelerator pressure, to not doing anything at all when I put my foot down, then catching up few seconds later with revs flying high. Also find it lumpy, as in not smooth and feeling hesitant as I’m moderately applying foot to the pedal to get up to town speeds, 30 40 mph etc if I dont put my foot down hard enough, which then gives me too much power. Anyone else notice this ? Any way to resolve it ? Toyota has an E CVT which works miles better.

Yeah... I have the 2010 Legacy 2.0L n.a and having excatly the same problems like yours with the like "nothing at all" when pressed gas pedal. Have kept resetting ECU or the idle relearn methods and it does magic for just a few days (I mean the car flys whenever gas pedal inputs) but problem comes back again and again. Only quite recently I had some issues with misfiring, and after changing plugs and coils, it seems the problem goes away, and the stalling also goes away somehow. But now only experiencing intermittent rough idles when engine still not fully warmed up and the car will even shakes or vibrates for few seconds. When put into N gear it will disappear immediately. Could that also be Torque converter issue? Next is to clean up the EGR valve to see how it goes...

Well I have a 2010 Subaru Legacy and I had the same problem. Couldn’t figure out what it was at first. I changed the cam and crankshaft sensors I changed the radiator, new wheel bearings, brakes, rotors, brake hoses, and a lot more work and still had the same problem. The stall comes when you come to a stop and the hesitation is from the engine. It isn’t a transmission problem. Come to find out out I came to start my car one day and I had a rough idle and strong smell of gas. The engine light was on flashing, disable cruise control, etc. I took it to a mechanic and the code it gave was cylinder 4 misfire and intake control valve solenoid. I changed the coil packs, spark plug and the intake valve solenoid and the problem went away. Also make sure there’s no valve cover gasket leak that causes oil to get inside of the coil packs and spark plugs and over flood the valves with puddles of oil. It’s a $900 fix.

I know this is a very old post now BUT mine finally began doing this. I had a very good feeling this was the torque converter cause I remember this being an issue way back with dealers trying to fix it before it became a problem. My 2011 legacy does this very same thing and going to take it to the dealer tomorrow. However I know for a fact this is it due to it's nature of stalling only in drive at a stop after cold starts but after a while the shifts warm up and it's ok. I'm only testing it but I'm actually down shifting it with the manual mode into 1st at complete stops to affirm this. Otherwise, had the throttle body cleaned and no codes (so no MAF) and acceleration is normal.

2010 Legacy owner here.. exact same thing started happening this month and guess what? its 2020 and the 10 year extended CVT warranty started from the date of first purchase (must have been sometime in 2010/09 we got the car used it only has 80 000 kms on it) I am going into subaru today to see if we are still under warranty but we never recieved a letter notifying us of the extended warrranty (or the issue with CVT) And if we are BARELY outside of warranty i really have no recourse but to sue them. This is a life threatening problem and my car has only 80 000 kms on it. I cant believe a company like subaru is screwing its customers like this
My 2022 Legacy just started doing this. So it is a typical problem with them eh.
*2012
I recently went off the road in my 2007 Subaru Legacy and after getting it pulled out his started pulling a similar stunt to me and I don't know what it is. any ideas?
had a similar problem for subaru forester- replaced the spark plugs then stopped for a while
I have the same issue with my 2004 forester I put the car in neutral when coming to a stop at the night (manual transmission) and I can watch the rpms drop it only does this couple times once I get it over 40 I seems to stop sometimes normally if I drive it for a couple min it helps could this be battery or alternator
What is the issue ?
Did you fix it... My 2008 WRX does the same thing
Thanks for the video upload. Did you ever get this problem figured out or fixed. My wife has a 2012 outback doing the same thing. Not as bad here is random. But with two kids I don’t want this type of issue. Any response would be great thanks.
The issue was the torque converter as described in another comment below. Had it replaced and haven't had any issues since.
Ouch. Thanks for the reply.
I called Subaru and told them this was a common problem and of course they denied it because they don't want to do anything about it what is this world coming people risking other people lives to make a dollar
Subaru’s are the biggest junk on the road.
2013 Legacy here. Same thing. As soon as it gets sufficiently cold out, say maybe 25-degrees F or below, I can just about count on this thing dying at a stop. Also, fun fact, new transmission a few months ago (@70k miles or so). No help with the cold stalling issue.
2010 Outback at 202,000km in November 2019 -- same problem. Subaru said it's $2400CAD+tax to replace the torque converter. I agree with Andrew, let's bring it up to Subaru because this should be a recall.
Hello did you get in touch with Subaru about this problem? Thanks
@@1977taza yes, and they couldn't do anything other than the $2400CAD fix. I ended up bringing it to AAMCO so they rebuilt the torque converter.
Martin Ceralde so the torque converter that was the problem?
@@1977taza yup
I am having the exact same problem. Sounds like you ended up taking it to AAMCO and they had to rebuild the Torque converter? 1. Is your Subaru running fine now? 2. How much was it at AAMCO ?
Hey Steve, did this not have anything to do with a replaced battery? I just had my battery replaced in my Outback and the mechanic said to just keep driving and restarting after it stalls so that the system can relearn its idle position
It worked? did you correct yourself?
This is a common problem and very easy to fix. I was about to give up on my car, and the doing my research I found out that it is a common problem on certain Subarus ans Saabs. The fix is to replace the crankshaft sensor.
Meny years ago, I found the same problem on a Chevy celebrity 2.8 as soon as it pick up temperature the sensor expands and loose continuity, may be You can try this taking ir out and heat it dime how while measuring continuity with a tester.
Luis Florentine work good no more problems
@@jerryvidal5359 awesome no more headaches I bet
BELIEVE IT OR NOT!!! I followed your exact procedure..... Except for disconnecting the battery or main fuse..... IT STILL WORKED !!!!!!!!! Thank you for saving me $620 on some service mechanic charging me for something SO simple. You are my hero
What was the fix?
Yeah how did you fix it lol
For me it was the crankshaft sensor
I have a 2005 impreza with 204k miles. It's a 2.5 rs 5 speed. It just started doing this crap! Every time I slow down or come to a stop it shuts off! I'm about to destroy it!!!!!!
Did you ever find out what was causing that problem? I have an 05 Impreza with the same issue
@@markgoldenberg870 unfortunately it was a head gasket on the right side. I sold it and the buyer told me thats what it was. He was a Toyota mechanic. He was more interested in it being a 5 speed and clean body with no rust.
starrdogchamp1 how could a head gasket issue cause it to stall? My mechanic said he thinks it’s an issue with the torque converter
@@markgoldenberg870 no idea. Thats what he told me. I never checked for coolant mixing at the time because 40k miles early I had the heads done due to the timing belt tensioner going. Mine was idling rough too! Now I bought a saab-aru. Ran great for about 6k miles. Started shutting off with the cel coming on briefly. I had no idea what was going on but it got worst. The problem was a catalytic converter and both 02 sensors. I bought after market and lasted 100 miles. Yes 100 miles. 700 bucks out the door. I had to buy oem catalytic converter and oem 02 sensors which are from an sti on the saab. 2300 bucks!!!!! Now runs like a new car!
Maybe my last subaru. Maybe if I find a bug or blob eye rs 5 speed in good shape or wrx in good shape. But for now? The saabaru might be the last time I buy this brand.
HELLO ALL!!! I say we should all band together and bring this to Subaru’s attention. This is completely unfair for those paying out of pocket who are over the extended warranty. This is obviously a factory issue and should not be placed upon us. For those who have had their torque converter fixed outta pocket or under warranty, we should still band together as we can get reimbursed and bring this subject to the world. This is unsafe for ANYONE. please join my group message chat so we can further discuss bringing this issue to Subaru HQ! Join here: youtu.be/join/ct-cJ2Ck1RKZ50
Had my valve body replaced under the extended warranty for this issue and now the lockout in my torque converter is causing the same issue. Subaru wants $1500 to replace the torque converter.
So dangerous and unfair I am pissed
@Arlene David you better go in now because the extended warranty started from the date of first purchase and it is only 10 years long (or 160 000 kms)
Hello all, Was able to get an official diagnosis on my 2012 Legacy over the weekend. Turns out to be a bad torque converter as well. Dealership quotes the replacement at $1800. Subaru needs to order a mass recall on this issue. Too many of us are experiencing this known issue. Could be life threatening as anyone can rear end us when our cars die randomly.
Andrew Vega hey broo
Andrew Vega I have the same issue. How is this problem resolved?
mines fine
Did you ever find a solution. My Subaru is doing the same thing
@@Claudis101 Hey! Unfortunately, I had to bring it in to my local Subaru dealership (not many 3rd party mechanics wanted to repair this for me.) Paid $1800 out of pocket for them to replace the torque converter
To correct, replace left hub bearing. It lacks precision at the stop and cause is probeme. I had trouble for 1 years before finding the real cause, he gave me the code p0500. Now everything is back to normal.
Clean the throttle body
Sorry, that does not help as I did clean the throttle body as well. As in the description, the issue was resolved by replacing the torque converter.
Hello! Same issue happening with my 2012 Subaru Legacy. I am now at 118k miles which puts me over the extended CVT warranty. I will try to fight the dealership and try to get compensated for anything regarding pricing for replacement. Has your legacy had any issues since replacing the torque converter?
No, everything was fine once the torque converter was changed. It is a known issue with Subaru CVT vehicles but they don't want to admit it as then the issue could be a recall.
I have 2011 Subaru Legacy, and it have some issue.
شني مشكلتها؟
Saher khalaf المشكلة يوم أخفف السرعة بشكل سريع تنطفي السيارة على حسب ما يقولو الشباب انه فيها مشكلة في التورك كونڤيرتار
Ahmed Al-Asmi hello, same issue with my 2012 Legacy as well. Would you be interested in bringing this to Subaru HQ together? I am planning on creating a team to fight this and officialize a recall on this well known issue.
Andrew Vega yes I would like to do that
Ciynder misfire this is the problem
Im probably a little late on this topic but i dont think subaru officially made a recall but they did add an extended warranty for transmission all the way to 160000km otherwise its probably around a 5-10 thousand dollar fix
Wow so helpful thanks! Great video
What was so helpful about it?
I know this is a very old post now BUT mine finally began doing this. I had a very good feeling this was the torque converter cause I remember this being an issue way back with dealers trying to fix it before it became a problem. My 2011 legacy does this very same thing and going to take it to the dealer tomorrow. However I know for a fact this is it due to it's nature of stalling only in drive at a stop after cold starts but after a while the shifts warm up and it's ok. I'm only testing it but I'm actually down shifting it with the manual mode into 1st at complete stops to affirm this. Otherwise, had the throttle body cleaned and no codes (so no MAF) and acceleration is normal.
Here’s what mine does so when I do a hard stop or uphill it’ll kinda start shaking like it is gonna die and I’d j let off the brake sometimes it won’t. And after it’s runninf for awhile it doesn’t do it. Is the common theme for this torque converter? I have no check engine lights on and runs fine otherwise
The same thing happen to my Impreza 2009 when I brake hard the car die 🚗, and start without problem and every day, and when I release the break pedal some times keeps run

Same problem with my 96 legacy. I know mines a bit older but it does this exact thing plus its bog out while I'm driving, feel like it stalled while I'm still doing 40mph, then kick back on like nothing happened. I changed the cam sensor and it didn't get any better. Anyone have a clue as to what's up with it?
Did you fix a car is yours a manual
@@relaxingmusiceames4249 it ended up being the mass airflow sensor. Now 3yrs later my speed sensor os acting up and i might have a bad ground somewhere.
I just contacted SOA regarding this. My ‘12 Legacy 2.5i CVT stalls and dies just like the video shows. My local $tealership denies its the transmision and blames it on a bad air filter. Funny how no CEL comes on. Local $tealership wont even test drive it. Lets see is SOA will step in as I only have until July with the extended warranty.
1 week later, SOA stepped in and agreed to replace the CVT. Car is in the shop and they provided a 2018 loaner.
Follow up. After a few months, failed again. They once again replaced.
@@Reeltinyphish hows it going now. I'm dealing with the same problem ?
This is a common problem associated with the torque converter and valve body of the CVT transmission. Subaru just recently extended the drivetrain warranty of these vehicles to 100K miles AND extended the warranty of these vehicles with over 100K miles through 2018. Take it to your Subaru dealer ASAP. I did and got $6K of work completed for $0 on my 2011 Outback w/ 94K miles. www.forbes.com/sites/jensen/2017/07/07/facing-complaints-subaru-offers-extended-warranties-on-1-5-million-vehicles/#2c6d6f2c79dc
I also have a 2010 subie Legacy and im in the same boat. But thanks to your link you posted the dealer is going to make stuff happen for me now. Thank you a million .
Here is a link to the letter: static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2014/SB-10067826-0699.pdf
Thank you Mr. McQueen for the link of the bulletin which is very important to the repairs of my Subie which i love lol . Thank you a million .
There is a subaru cvt customer service letter. Google it and you can read the letter and how Subaru has extended the warranty.

can you upload Decrytion tools? Thanks
I have a 2012 Legacy. Car is doing the exact same thing...Will Subaru cover the cost of this? Of course this happens as I reach 64,000 miles :/
Until there is a recall on this issue or if you are still under a warranty you will most likely have to pay for the service.
Declan Traquair hello, same issue with my 2012 Legacy as well. Would you be interested in bringing this to Subaru HQ together? I am planning on creating a team to fight this and officialize a recall on this well known issue.
can you send me the virus for testing on virtual machine please ? send private message. thx
I do not know. As I wrote in the description I do not have the decryption tool. This was presented to me from another person online that was I believe to scam me into purchasing the tool. Someone in a forum did buy the tool for $600 but it only decrypted 10 files and no more. That person then asked for more money to decrypt more files. I wish that I could help you but I am in the same situation. I need the decryption tool as well.
can you send a key in a txt doc please
