My HCH does have a CVT.thanks for the help so far.

Also, I've seen this problem occur at high speed when you suddenly remove your foot off the gas.

Re: Car Bucking
I know it's a different car, but a thought as I'm sure the design is very similar:

Yes, they have had an Insight CVT since mid 2001. Occasionally a thread at IC pops up about surging. Sometimes it's the EGR valve, a few times it has been the transmission, in most cases the fluid just needed flushed.

Re: Car Bucking
ive noticed something similar also in my new 2006. it occurs occasionally when driving under 10mph. i think it has something to do with the switch b/w electric to full gas mode. Not as smooth as usual. Usually occurs when i accelerate from about 6mph up to 9mph(lightly touching the gas pedal). I guess i would call it "bucking". Will have the dealer check it next time.

Re: Car Bucking
Our office 2008 Civic Hybrid was surging very annoyingly on the highway when we took it on a bit of a road trip last week. It happened twice and felt the same as a car with a worn out crown wheel in the final drive unit.
So is this problem supposed to be eradicated in the new car?
This one has about 1500 km on it - virtually new.
Unrelated question: the car has lots of trim rattles inside, is this also common?
