pedal vibration felt under acceleration
I've have my Pure for over a month and have been noticing an abrupt vibration felt through the gas pedal under acceleration at exactly between 10-15 mph, ONLY while in drive directly after initial start up. If I park it without shutting down the motor, it isn't felt again once its put in drive again. But every time the motor is shut down and starts back up, the vibration is felt under acceleration. The dealer wasn't able to diagnose the issue since they didn't have another Evoque to compare it with. Has any other owner felt this issue??

RE: pedal vibration felt under acceleration
received the car back from dealer this week. They didn't have another Evoque to compare it with but reassured me that it was the ABS brakes and its sensors going through its cycle. Could someone please just drive theirs and see if they feel the same "whoosing/ vibrating" feel from their gas pedal at about 10-15mph. Just trying to see if it's consistent.

RE: pedal vibration felt under acceleration
I dont have that problem with mine. Although mine has a wierd clunking sound when i put it into D and drive away each time i shut the engine off. Ill check again at what speed it happens at. Maybe it is similar to yours.

RE: pedal vibration felt under acceleration
I think they have just palmed you off. If ABS is going through a cycle (though never heard that one brfore) it should not be affecting your accelerator.
Back to the dealer and demand some more research.

RE: pedal vibration felt under acceleration
It is difficult to describe the sound/vibration. But it is noticeable only upon start up and in D @ ~10-15mph. Someone please reassure me I'm not crazy.

RE: pedal vibration felt under acceleration
We might have the same thing. Almost has slapping sound like something is engaging in the drivetrain. I can't remember when it started doing this
I don't want to take it to the dealer since I have seen anyone post about this. The dealer doesnt have another in instock to see if that does that or not. Next dealer is 140 miles away

Have not noticed the problem, but will check it out on the next drive.

RE: pedal vibration felt under acceleration
I was at my dealers last night going back and forth in the work shop trying to diagnose a judder moving in D or R on tickover around 5mph. The technician suspects a drive line issue associated with the lock up mechanism on the torque converter. I am not so convinced and think it may be an engine issue.
He will put in a Technical Request to Land Rover. Note all issues on Evoques should be sent by the dealers to LR HQ according to a recent request. So any niggle, let them know about it and don't be fobbed off.
I expect to get an update next week and will post my findings. I put another post out there on asking for details on the autobox, nobody has come forth with any specific knowledge yet.

RE: pedal vibration felt under acceleration
My problem is different than yours. Since it started to rain here I noticed it's something to do with the drivetrain cause I can here the tires chrip when that happens
Sorry couldnt help you with your problem
