Idle drop when stopped

2277 Views 5 Replies 4 Participants Last post by  vtmecheng
I have a 2012 4 cylinder, PZERO, CVT Outback. When sitting at a stoplight in drive it will occasionally drop RPMs and act like it will stall, only to recover before stalling. After this it runs fine. I know others here have experienced this, with some even having the car stall. Has anyone found having the computer re-flashed corrected this problem? Thank you.

I have an 2008 2.5i and when I first got it about 2 years ago it would constantly do this. I think it has something to do with the whole PZEV thing. The flash reduced it about 85%. To be honest, I don't even notice/care anymore...it's a Subaru thing.
