Passat (B6) :: Jerking / Shifting From 2nd To 3rd Gear
My car is jerking from 2-3...whether in auto or in tip.
View 3 RepliesGmc :: Jerking Motion And Clunking Sound Into Gear Occasionally
I have a 2004 Saturn LW with 6 cylinders. For the past few months, but only about one or twice per month, my car has been clunking jerkily when changing gears. There is no pattern, except that it happens at slower speeds, say mostly under 40 MPH both forward and in reverse, sometimes when I put the car into gear and sometimes when it changes automatically. Yes, you have guessed it, whenever I take it in, it acts just fine, and no one can get it to duplicate the bahavior.
Oh, the dashboard the the light indicating necessary service comes on whenever the gears clunk and the car jerks, but when it behaves, no indicator light comes on.
I have about 114,000 miles on the car. do I just need new transmission fluid, or is my transmission getting shot? Am I stripping gears? do I really need to wait until the mechanic hears it? Everything could be utterly destroyed by then, right?
Ford Ranger / B-Series :: Jerking In The 3rd Gear And Up When Giving Gas

I have a 2005 Santa Fe that for the last week or so has been slipping/jerking at about 2500rpms (2nd and 3rd gear). This only happens after the car has been warmed up and running for 20 minutes or so. I have put it into manual and it does not do this, only when in auto.
View 2 RepliesJaguar - X-type :: 2002 - Jerking Like Slipping Out Of Gear When Driving And Shift Up
My Jaguar X-Type has a 5-speed manual transmission, and when I am driving and shift up, sometimes it starts jerking pretty violently like it might be slipping out of gear, and I have to shift into another gear to get it to stop. It seems to be exacerbated if I am accelerating. I can always get it to stop by shifting, but am afraid at some point that it will not slip into another gear and I'll be stranded. I had a mechanic look at it but he has no idea what is causing the problem and I don't want to pay for multiple repairs that may or may not fix the problem! The car's got about 125,000 miles.

I have an Elantra 2012 sedan GL and last year i tried installing HID's. It worked for a whole but then it stopped after. I learned that it wasn't getting enough power so then yesterday I bought a wiring kit to be able to wire my HID to tap to the battery to get more power. Everything was fine till I got to work but when I had to leave work., there was an issue. Whenever i switch the gear from park to drive or reverse or neutral. My car seems to jerk. And when I'm driving and it changes gears, it also jerks. Kind of the same thing how if your driving a manual car and you change gears wrong. This happens when my lights are off. But when i turn them on it then stops. And when i turn it back of it doesn't do it anymore.
View 5 RepliesPassat (B6) :: 2007 Jerking During Acceleration
I have a 2007 2.0T and about two weeks ago the car started jerking while accelerating. It only does it when the engine is cold. Sometimes it does it more than others. Shortly after the engine reaches its normal operating temperature, it stops jerking.
I scanned the computer with my VAG-COM but there are not DTCs. I originally suspected the oxygen sensor but the jerking happens even before the oxygen sensor kicks in. So even when is running a fuel rich mixture prior to getting feedback from the O2 sensor it jerks sometimes.
I have just under 55K miles, so I am not sure about the spark plugs but I find it strange that once the car warms up it stops doing it. The cam follower got replaced about 12K miles ago. The air filter is due for change soon but I don't think that is the problem, last time I looked at it (about 3K miles ago, it didn't look that dirty). I need to check this one again...haven't had time lately.
The only thing that was done recently to the car was the replacement of the transmission valve body under the powertrain warranty. The first few days everything worked okay but then a few days after the repair the jerking started. Could this be a symptom of tranny issues?
Passat (B6) :: 2006 - Car Started Jerking / Misfiring
I've been out of town a bunch and my car has been sitting out at the airport. I picked it up last friday, drove it home. Today on my way to work the car started jerking - like the engine was trying to rev slightly. When I put it in park, and listened, the engine was jerking or misfiring maybe. The exhaust was a bit louder than normal as well and i could hear the stress in it. I also smelt a strange burning smell. I've called and had roadside assistance pick it up and take it to the dealer.
View 7 RepliesPassat (B6) :: Loss Of Power / Jerking And Black Smoke
Vehicle details : PASSAT 2.0 TDI 170 BHP DSG - 2007 ... 160KM
Problem:-
>>RPM doesn't climb as it should and esp in the run up to 3 gear and the DSG up shifts too quickly 4th and 5th
>>Loss of power. Pressing the gas pedal during all this leads to lots of black smoke and jerking but eventually the car picks up rpm and speed. Am I stuck in limp-home mode here?
>> No CEL light (yet)
The problem becomes very prominent when the engine warms up fully. Its drivable before that. Driving it in Sports mode is the only saving grace. Note that the car it is nothing like how it should be in sports mode, but feels better. I can hear the turbo whistle only when the engine is cold.
Initially, the Engine mounts were thought to be the culprit (for jerking and then ECU reducing power) and then later the EGR value unit (jerking/pinking and power loss).
Work done so far :
1. Original VW Timing Belk Kit (incl water pump) - September 2012
2. Engine Mounts changed - - September 2012
3. Has been plugged into VAG Diagnostic software and an intermittent error was detected for EGR.So, EGR valve control unit was changed - late December 2012
4. Engine Oil (5W-30, fully Synth) and filter changed three time in space of last 10K KMs after I bought the car in September 2012. This is something I wanted to get done anyway to flush the engine
5. Used injector cleaning additives couple of times -December 2012
6. ECU (error-code) reset procedure, just a couple of days ago. This actually seemed to remove some of the jerking and loss of power, but it appears to be coming back now.
7. Transmission reset - yesterday . Did this anyway although the DSG seems to be fine, no problems with the gear shifts

My car is less than 2 months old and randomly in low gears the car will jerk or lurch when shifting gears. Is this common or does this need to be looked at?
View 18 RepliesPassat (B6) :: 2006 2.0T - Clunking / Jerking Intermittently When Braking
My 06 2.0t has 73k on it. but i noticed at around 60k that when I brake, almost to the point where I'm stopping (like at a light) the car jerks or grabs...kinda like the tranny is catching or the brakes are grabbing. Twice I've asked vw to check and twice they've said they can't find anything wrong.
Warranty runs out at 75k, so I think I'm going to take it to AAMCO to have them check the tranny and see what they say.
Passat (B7) :: 2015 - Steering To Right After An Alignment - Jerking Transmission
2015 TDI SE with sunroof. Wife's 3rd VW, 2nd TDI.
Under 1,000 miles. We both noticed it pulling to the right when on any road. The first thing that came to mind was tire pressure. I checked it. 50 PSI from the dealer/factory. We're running the Bridgestone run flats. The pressure in the door well says to set them at 35psi. The dealer was a little shocked when we brought it in that either one of their guys set it that high or someone from the factory did. The sidewall on the Bridgestone says 51psi max.
The dealer knocked down the pressures and gave us a free alignment. They said they road tested the car as well and it was good. We didn't get 2 miles away and when you let your hands off the wheel it will still pull right an entire lane in between 100-200 yards.
Is there a TSB out there on this? I'll be taking it back next week to get it looked at again. I drove a 2.5SEL when we got the tint/spoiler installed, tracked perfectly. I drove a 1.8TSI when we got the alignment done, tracked perfectly.
Also, the 1.8L was pretty impressive for a car that big. I believe it has about the same amount of power than the 2.5 but it seemed to have a lot more get up and go. Transmission however was VERY jerky and had a tough time finding the right gear.
Passat (B6) :: 2005 GLS TDI Jerking When Shifting And Hesitating When Taking Off From A Stop
I have a 2005 Passat GLS TDI. Recently it has started jerking when shifting and hesitating when taking off from a stop. I guess it's not quite a hesitation but I press the gas and it takes a few seconds to kick in and go. The check engine light came on and I read the codes with a code reader.
The codes I got were P0674-Glow plug/heater cylinder 4 and P0741 Torque converter CKT performance or stuck off. Now The car started hard in the winter when it was really cold so I am assuming the one code means we have a bad glow plug.

Well as the title states, I am having a harder time getting into first with the A/C on. The car shakes like crazy as I let out the clutch and give it gas, but once I am in gear it is fine. I searched and found nothing, so am a loss to even know where to look or what part of the A/C system could be the problem.
View 17 RepliesPassat (B5) :: 2000 VW Would Not Go Into Gear At All
I recently did an oil change on my 2000 1.8L Turbo Passat. Shortly afterward I started having transmission problems. First it was minor and the gears were slipping, but this morning the car would not go into gear at all. It starts and the engine runs perfectly fine, but won't shift. I am wondering if this is related to the oil change or if it is a coincidence.

I went to a friend's house uphill without switching gears. I stayed on drive the whole time. RPM did not exceed 4000. It went a little over 3000 while driving 40 mph. I didn't floor the gas pedal. I'd say the hill going up was pretty steep. I didn't realize how steep it was. Any way what gear should I switch to when I go downhill? I drive a 99 Passat 1.8t.....
