1998 Civic HX CVT tranny questions

Hello all! I just recently bought a 98 HX with the cvt transmission. This is my first car with a cvt so I'm not really sure how they should feel. Anyway I've noticed that when I start driving from a stop, it seems like it kind of lurches when the tranny engages and then it's fine... like I said I don't know maybe this is normal, just wanted to see if anyone else has noticed the same thing... Thanks!!

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Probably normal. Hondas CVT does not drive like any other trans you have ever been around. Try to find another CVT Civic to ride in for comparison, even a Hybrid CVT is probably real similar.
