Hello, I just recently purchased a 2017 Civic EX (no turbo). It's my first time owning a Honda and I am coming from a Prius.
When I am driving the vehicle and slowing down, or slowly braking it almost feels like an abrupt downshifting or like a mini rough shift. The car has 220 miles on it and this is the first week I am driving it. I did see surging issues with other cars, but it appears those are primarily for the turbo versions which mine does not have. I did not know if this is part of the way Honda Civics are managing the engine, or automatic shifting, etc....
Unfortunately I don't have a better way of describing this and it's not the end of the world, but I was not sure if it was part of the normal operation. It feels like a rough downshift with an automatic if I had to describe the feeling. It only happens when I am slowing down .
Thanks
