Recently ive noticed that my car (MY07 2.0R) has flat spots in the acceleration only at certain times.
During constant acceleration, at 2000 rpm or 2500 rpm it feels like ive let off the accelerator even though its remained in the same position, or even been depressed more. Then when the rpm reaches 3000 or 3500, the power suddently comes back on, and the car accelerates like i expect it to.
I think its a misfiring issue, but have no idea what the cause is. The car had its service completed at 25,000kms (currently 33,000kms) and it was only purchased on the 29th of May from Docklands.
Its currently doing my head in as its so random.

I had the exact same prob with my 2006 2.0r liberty & searched for ages to find a solution & finally stumbled upon the answer ( why Subaru don't tell people is beyond me ) I was told by someone on a Subaru forum ( can't remember what one ) to reset the computer by myself at home & it worked like a charm & hasn't played up in nearly 12 months - this even works on other brand cars.
To reset car computer disconnect the negative battery cable & put your foot on the brake peddle for about 30 seconds or more - let it then sit there for 5 mins & reconnect the battery - don't touch anything just turn key to start car & leave it be for 20 - 30 minuets idling ( you will hear it changing revs & such by itself ) then turn off the engine. Next time you start the car you should be pleasantly surprised. This fixed the probs with my liberty once and for all & when it starts to play up again I will repeat this to fix it. It really is that easy
