Honda - Accord :: Transmission Started Slipping As Car Shifts Into 2nd And Sometimes 3rd Gear
My transmission has started slipping as car shifts into 2 and sometimes 3rd gear. It races and is not engaged, so there is no power for the few seconds (sometimes longer) when this happens. Car has about 216,000 miles - and it's time to also replace tires. As I look at the estimated bill, I'm having to decide if it's still a good investment to do the work on the car. I love the car and there is no rust or other problems.

My 2010 Ford Escape Shifts hard, but only first thing in the morning. After it warms up I doesn't seem to do it. It has 66,000 miles on it and and when this started I took it to a transmission shop and they flushed out the transmission fluid. There were no warning in the computer for the transmission. I'm thinking it may not be the transmission, but an acceleration problem. Could this be true?

I just bought a 2010 Santa Fe with 52,000 miles. The car looks great and runs fine once warmed up. Problem came after I got it home. I have found that it shifts rough when first started for about 5 miles. After that it runs great. From a quick search I have found 2 TSB's that may apply, 10-AT-006 and 11-AT-011-2.

This is the second time I notice a problem with my 2014 elantra base model. The car only has 13000kms and today the car acted with a weird behaviour. This car has a manual 6 speed transmission.
Out of the blue the car jerked like it had a problem with the transmission switching gears which is weird as this is a manual.
The second time this happened the wife was driving and she said that she was in is third gear and she pressed the clutch and the brake at the same time and she felt a small jerking feel in the clutch like it didn't engage.
The problem is that I cant reproduce the problem. The car is still under warranty and I don't want to go to the dealer with a problem that I cant exhibit.
Tiguan :: 2013 Vehicle Started Downshifting In A Harsh Manner - Transmission Done
Yesterday my 2013 R-Line started downshifting in a harsh manner. Vehicle has been serviced regularly every 8,000 km in accordance with the VW Maintenance Schedule as outlined in the Owners Manual. It is also completely stock and daily driven (mostly highway).
Today I took it to have it checked out as I suspected the TCU might be the problem. As it turns out they said that the entire Transmission needs to be replaced. I have 108,000 km on the odometer now so the Canadian Warranty has expired (100,000km)
I was absolutely gutted as it seems absurd that an automatic transmission would fail with relatively low mileage. My old MkV GTI with a DSG is still going with over 300,000 km.
This is my second Tiguan in the past 3 years. I have also owned a MkV GTI and also currently own a Mk6 Golf R. I have always been good to all of my VWs(maintenance) and they have always been reliable until now.
Elantra MD (2010-15) :: 2013 GLS Jerky Transmission When Shifts From 3rd To 4th Gear
I just bought a brand new 2013 Elantra! I love the car, but over the past week or so I have started to feel the car's transmission (auto) jerk when it shifts from 3rd to 4th gear. I feel the car hesitate somewhat when going from 3rd and then jerk into 4th gear if that makes any sense. The car has less than 1000 miles and it never did it when I first bought it. The transmission was always smooth until recently. Also, when coasting down the road I feel the car jerk forward when I give it some gas which also feels very strange to me!?

My brother-in-law asked me about his 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe. It has an automatic transmission, that's where the problem is. Several times recently it doesn't want to go into reverse or park. Shifts fine, fluid fine, no smell or noises. Vehicle has about 68,000 miles on it.
View 1 RepliesTiguan :: Hesitation Or Slight Jerking On Acceleration
I have a 2009 Tiguan 2.0T Gas 2WD Tiptronic Auto.
I noticed a while back on a cold morning that at first start the idle would seem off a bit.
I only would notice it for about a couple of minutes and then it would smooth out as I began to drive.
Lately that still happens some but mainly I have some hesitation or slight jerking as I accelerate now.
Mainly it will do it while starting to take off slowly/ when pulling a hill/ and when having to maintain a low speed behind many other cars.
I can counter act it a bit by stepping harder on the gas pedal(when there's room) and getting the RPM to go and stay over 2000 like on the highway.
If it is under 2000 RPM you can notice it pretty well.
I am concerned as I have not had this problem before and it is very well maintained and cared for.
Though it is likely due for a tune up...
What could be the most likely cause? I don't really want to take it to the dealer first as they would want a fee beforehand just to check it out.
It had a check engine light on for just a minute one day but it did not stay on.
If it stayed on then I could get the parts store to check it using the OBDII scanner.
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 9 RepliesAccent LC (2000-05) :: Car Started Sputtering Or Jerking
I have an Hyundai Accent Petrol 1.6L ABS.
While driving the other day suddenly the car started sputtering or jerking while on low rpm and after changing gears
the exhaust is also making sputtering sounds when on idle.
when I press the accelerator the sputters/jerks and then picks up rpm. the performance of the car does not seem to be affected but petrol mileage has fallen.
when I accelerate slowly then the sputtering/jerking is reduced and sometimes not present much. There is also a deep and heavy sound of the engine running heard inside the car (which has been present before the timing belt change)
I took the car to the workshop and attached the OBD.
the codes P0340 P0112 were present. we now erased the codes and the mechanic checked the sensor wire plugs for the cam sensor and air sensor saying it looks fine. on attaching the OBD again the codes were not present. However the sputtering/jerking continues. (the fuel pump and filter were also checked to be ok)
My Timing belt has been changed approximately a month back. My car does not run much (Approx 40kms a day)
My questions are
1. can a bad timing of the timing belt have anything to do with this and thus giving these codes?
2. Can there be something wrong with the exhaust due to which this problem is taking place?
3. what could be possibly wrong with the car?
4. Can this result in any damage to the engine?
Elantra MD (2010-15) :: 2011 - Transmission Started To Grind When Shifting
I purchased my car almost two years ago. I drive a lot for work, and my car now has 74000 kilometers on it.
So far its gone thru 3 CV Axle Joints on the drivers side, a radio unit, clutch bearing, fork, and fulcrum, and now there's something wore out in the rear suspension (squeaking and snapping).
The transmission in mine has also started to grind when shifting like the syncros are wearing out. Motor knocks when it's cold, sounds like the top end goes dry of oil when sitting overnight and takes awhile to get any.

My wife's 03 B5.5 with 130K has started to shudder really bad during all shifts, up or down.
The trans has never been serviced since that is what we were advised upon original purchase.
I've heard of valve body replacement and/or a service including a power flush. filter and screen cleaning might do the trick.
Accent LC (2000-05) :: Trans Shifts Hard Into Second And Won't Go Into Overdrive When First Started
I have the p0734 and p0732 codes. Thing is it shifts hard into second and wont go into overdrive when first started. After about ten minutes of drive time you shut it off and turn it back on and the thing shifts perfectly. No hard shifts and overdrive works then check engine light turns off. The pulse generators have been replaced when i purchased car. It is an 02 accent with 90,000 miles.

View 4 RepliesDodge - Intrepid :: Transmission Stalled Accelerating And Jerking
I recently had several parts replaced on my 02 Dodge Intrepid within the last few months, including the brake lines, motor, gas lines, sensors, spark plugs, and a few rusted parts that were busted while the motor was being replaced. I have had my car back for a week after most recently getting the gas line replaced. (My gas line froze the same day I got it back after getting the motor fixed!)I haven't had an issues until Saturday morning my engine light came on.
I drove it throughout the day no problems, then I stopped at a red light and had trouble accelerating when I went to turn, my car then jerked forward and and ran seemingly normal, but the problem continued every time I stopped or slowed down. After 5 minutes or less of this I parked my car and called my mechanic. After a half hr I restarted my car and circled the parking lot with no issue and headed to a friends nearby. The stalled accelerating and jerking began again until I couldn't accelerating at all without waiting and restarting my car, and then finally there was no moving it at all.
I had it towed this morning and was told I had no transmission fluid. After replacing the fluid my car was driven to my house without an issue, so im assuming I didn't blow my trans? Several hours later, I went to start my car and there was a large amount of red fluid under the front of the car by the bumper and it wont move once again. Obviously I have a leak, but I don't know if the leak was the cause of the initial problem or if the problem caused the leak.
Sonata NF (2006-10) :: Jerking Stops When Transmission Is Under Load
My 2006 Sonata has 63K miles and today started jerking (Hunting) after about 10 miles. Here is what I know. It starts on a level run and disappears when on an incline, but as soon as the crest is reached, and on the downside, it starts hunting again. When it is jerking, around 55 to 60 mph, I switch the transmission lever to Autostick and it stops, back into drive again and it starts again. This is so repeatable there has to be a connection. EVERY time I switch to Autostick the jerking stops, end when I put it back into drive, it starts again. The jerking is severe enough that it is easily detectable. It appears that when the transmission is under load, like going uphill, the jerking stops.
View 6 RepliesPassat (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.
