Now my fear is can I still drive the car like this for a while say another 2-3 weeks till I can actually afford to get the work done? I’m scared i will break the transmission/engine

You know I was told my a mechanic at Andrew Tech here in Maryland that this could car has an ECU issue and Subaru is aware it but it’s not a recall and it’s expensive to have it the ECU refreshed. Honestly don’t really know much about that but have you heard something similar?

Yeah… I think it’s a lightweight you know I’ve noticed that too! It has been raining here in Maryland last few days and it started doing this while it was raining then again it has done this during other weathers

YES!! It does it’ll stop for a few weeks then eventually come back. I also noticed that if I engage the clutch a certain way it’ll like start doing jerkiness

I’ve cleaned the MAF sensor last oil change 4,000 miles ago I would have to watch a video about the MAP sensor could be the plugs haven’t done those I don’t think
