Default Help!!!! Flat Spot When Accelerating

Hello right i recently got a new Subaru Impreza r sport 2006 model only done 29000 miles. Only had it like a month and the other night driving home i put it into 3rd and accelerated from 30/40mph and between 2500rpm until 3500rpm it seems to loose power and then on 3500rpm it gets all it's power back with a sudden burst. I have plugged and ECU reader in and no error codes have come up. Does anyone have an idea???

Thanks Michael

go to a dealer and get them to check the pak files on the select monitor, i know that there is a rewrite for the legacys and with a new knock sensor as well it cures them but i dont know about the imprezas i'll check tomorrow if i get time what engine size is it

you can't as it's a set program for a specific part of the software you would need a proper mapper to redo the whole thing

Hola. Viendo este foro paso a consultar si este problema ya ha sido solucionado. Ya que mi vehículo presenta la misma falla y lamentablemente en mi pais el servicio Tecnico de SUBARU dice que no existe tal reprogramacion.
