What Causes the Car Body to Shake During Gear Shifting?

[AlainaLee]

There are two main reasons for the shaking: one is releasing the clutch too quickly; the other is driving at too high a speed, which means the gear and speed are mismatched. Below are the reasons for car shaking during gear shifting: 1. Jerking refers to a slight and brief shaking phenomenon that occurs when the transmission shifts gears. Slow-motion videos show: at the moment the car's transmission shifts from 1st to 2nd gear, there is a slight and brief shake; 2. All AT transmissions will have jerking, the difference lies only in the degree and duration of the transmission's shaking during the gear shift. If the degree is small and the duration is short, it is not easily noticeable; 3. However, if the degree is large and the duration is long, it will be clearly noticeable. This is commonly referred to as 'experiencing jerking while driving,' which can make people feel uncomfortable, affect the driving rhythm, and lead to a poorer driving experience.
