What Causes Gear Shift Jerking in Automatic Transmissions?
1 Answers
An automatic transmission is a gear-shifting device that automatically changes gears based on the vehicle's speed and engine RPM, as opposed to a manual transmission. The reasons for gear shift jerking in automatic transmissions are: 1. Poor driving habits: Due to lack of skill, the driver may shift gears in a way that severely mismatches the gear position with the vehicle's speed. 2. Transmission issues: Inadequate cooling can cause the transmission to overheat, leading to problems like oil leaks, which in turn reduce oil pressure. 3. Excessive internal contaminants: Too much debris and dirt inside the transmission can interfere with its normal operation, resulting in a jerking sensation during driving.
