The engine likes running at 1800rpm even if I'm not touching the throttle. So if I have to brake suddenly the engine stops. Furthermore if I start the engine and put the CVT in D or L the engine stops also. This is getting a bit better when the engine is hot but I need to get the rpm's down to around 1000/1200 to prevent the engine from stopping again. It's just like driving a non-automatic gearbox in second/third gear and braking without declutching. Anybody any info on a solution ?
