Hi All,

I'm having a real problem tracking down this problem with my 2017 sport. It's only done 89,000 kms.

Between about 1000 and 1500 rpm the car suddenly stutters and looses power momentarily. This happens at various speeds, feels like a hesitant gear chance, but it's not (see below). Sometimes it's really jerky, other times it's not there at all. It' been getting progressively worse over the past 5 months. When you accelerate quickly it skips through this sticky spot and goes well. It's had both a general service, only 5000 kms ago and an auto service at the same time.

We're not getting any significant codes, it's been read every which way but loose by all these places below.

I've had it at Land Rover Melb for diagnosis - no success.
My father and I replaced the solenoids thinking this might help locate/recitify the problem.
I've had it at 2 Auto Trans Specialists - they're convinced it's not in the auto. They don't think it's the torque converter.
I've had it at a diesel specialist, they think it's the torque converter.
It's now at a workshop that specialise in Land Rovers, they're not having any luck either.

God **** this problem is driving me nuts.

Please help!!!
