Speed doesn`t make any difference, it`s always there. I just can feel it better at low speed in urban areas when driving in first or second gear. Btw. this car is with 6 speed manual gearbox. Here is one typical scenario. I`m driving in traffic jam. Gear 2, engine running 1000-1500 rpm. Constant speed behind another car. Giving a little gas, braking with motor, give a little gas, braking with motor... This is really nerve wracking situation. Instead of gas pedal, it`s like using a switch to switch injection on and off! None of my Subaru diesels I have driven, has never had this kind of problem before. I was already thinking to replace the whole ECU unit with another one, but would it change anything if a new ECU software doesn`t change anything either. This problem started a little by little, around 10000 miles ago. That`s why I was thinking, it might be a hardware problem, not a software.
