hesitation on lift-throttle, 1st and 2nd gear

Aloha,

For about a year now, I've had an 03 Boxster S (3.2) 6sp., purchased with 7kmi., and now with 17kmi. (US). I'm lucky enough to live on Maui, and drive some of the world's best roads. However, I've had one intermittent but persistent problem with the car, and I want to get it resolved while still under warranty (thru 3/07).

When I accelerate in 1st or 2nd gear (or sometimes both), and then ease up on the throttle, the motor sometmes hesitates and "jerks" a few times. It doesn't happen in other gears; isn't motor-temp. related; follows hard or mild acceleration; and is not repeatable at will.

The Porsche tech has found no fault codes, and of course, it never happens when he drives the car.

Has anyone heard of, or experienced this?

John

hard to say without experiencing it. could be an e-throttle issue. could also be something with the dual mass flywheel. it's a stick, i'm assuming?
