How to Solve the Jerking Issue in the 8th Generation Civic?
1 Answers
The solutions for jerking in the 8th Generation Civic are as follows: 1. Upshift Jerking: This is mostly caused by the transmission's response speed not being fast enough, where the upshift speed cannot keep up with the throttle input. Therefore, there is a jerking sensation at the moment the transmission shifts gears. It is recommended to avoid sudden acceleration. 2. Downshift Jerking: This is mostly due to the intervention of the energy recovery system. Once the driver releases the throttle pedal or steps on the brake pedal, the generator immediately starts working, which puts some load on the engine, affecting the engine speed and causing it to be out of sync with the clutch plate speed, resulting in a jerking sensation. It is recommended to avoid sudden braking.
