What Causes Strong Jerking Sensation While Driving?
2 Answers
The reasons for a strong jerking sensation while driving are: 1. The upshift speed cannot keep up with the driver's throttle input; 2. When the driver releases the accelerator pedal or presses the brake pedal, causing the engine speed to be out of sync with the clutch disc speed; 3. Transmission gear program malfunction; 4. Internal contamination or presence of impurities in the transmission; 5. Poor transmission cooling. Solutions for strong jerking sensation while driving include: 1. Check the transmission temperature; 2. Reprogram the transmission computer system; 3. Replace the transmission fluid; 4. Inspect the internal valve body of the transmission for damage; 5. Clean the interior of the transmission.
Well, I've driven quite a few cars and encountered strong jerking issues during driving several times. It's mainly likely due to engine or transmission failures, such as aged spark plugs or damaged ignition coils causing jerky acceleration. Dirty automatic transmission fluid or unstable oil pressure is also quite common – it improved significantly after I changed the fluid last time. Clutch wear can also cause jerking, especially when driving manual transmissions; slipping clutch plates make the power feel intermittent. Don't forget to check tire balance – unbalanced wheels increase vibration sensations, and these minor issues accumulate to become noticeable. I suggest starting with simple checks first, like seeing if any warning lights are illuminated on the dashboard, and getting a professional inspection early to avoid causing more severe engine damage.
