Transmission Slip?

[East Pegger]

Hey there,
So l've had my 2025 ST for about 9 months now, and I'm noticing what feels like the transmission is slipping when I accelerate from a full stop. When I step on the gas, there seems to be a fraction of a second before the front wheels get power. I don't recall this happening in the first few months I had it. I had chalked it up to just slippery winter driving conditions, but now that the snow is going and the roads are dry, it's still doing it. Does it normally take a half second for the front wheels to 'engage'? Anyone else experiencing this?

I must say, aside from this minor annoyance, it's been a fantastic vehicle to drive this winter!

I get a hesitation when I'm accelerating while turning the wheel, I don't think it's a slip but it feels like the power isn't catching.

Are you sure you’re just not feeling turbo lag? The front wheels are technically always engaged, these are technically full time AWD cars.

Not sure, my EXP is AWD, maybe that's a thing with AWD vehicles.

Are you trying to go WOT while rolling?
