I get the same sometimes, I am just not used to all the city driving I do so I miss my "RPM window" sometimes. It took me 4K miles (don't laugh, it was years between my manual vehicles) to really get used to this but now I feel confident and this doesn't happen much. I threw on a cold air intake and a throttle body spacer that makes it sound mean at 2500 RPMS too so that also helps. I rev until I hear the growl then I know I am where she wants me to be... make sense?Have a 2018 with about 8K on it. Have been having issues with an uneven power band while accelerating. I can feel it most when getting into 2nd from a turn around a corner. What I feel is that I turn with the clutch in and no gas. While letting the clutch out and giving the JL gas, I basically have no power. After about 1-2 seconds, then I can feel the power kick in and I am able to accelerate. Also, while accelerating getting onto the freeway, I can feel sluggishness.
Took it to the dealer yesterday and of course the response was that the tech could find nothing wrong with my JL.
Just really makes it not so much fun to drive.
Wondering if anyone else is experiencing something similar.
Be a little more aggressive, sometimes they like that...
