Hey guys, I need your help to verify if this is a common behaviour or not. I have a 2020 CX-5 with 2.5L Skyactiv-G with cylinder deactivation.
Car is less than 1000 miles and today I noticed there's a slight jerkiness when I transition from no pedal press to very light pedal press. A single "tick" noise can also be heard when this happens.
It was quite easy to replicate at low speed. A common scenario would be when you're travelling at low speed decelerating and accelerating on a bumper to bumper traffic.
Looking at the "Fuel Economy Monitor" screen, I noticed this jerkiness was caused by the engine transitioning from [4 cylinders idle (grayed out)] to [all 4 cylinders running (red symbol"] under the Cylinder Deactivation animation.
Is it supposed to do that? Can anyone test this on theirs and report back if it's a "fearure" rather than a "fault"?
P.S I know there was a recall for cylinder deactivation recall where a software fix had to be applied for 2018 & 2019, however I assumed mine had already been applied from the factory being a 2020 model year.
