700 miles DCT Tour backfire

Post by pedropedro »



noticed recently that at initial throttle under load, then let go I find at times there is a slight backfire-not major but light. Not always, just sometimes. Should it be concerned? Take it to the dealer? Doesn't happen unless under load at low throttle

I have a 2018 Tour MT and it does it sometimes on gear changes. Asked my very experienced GW dealer (Schroader's in Hendersonville, NC) and they said no worries, not abnormal......
