What causes the jerking and surging at low speeds in an Accord?
1 Answers
Here are the specific reasons for jerking at low speeds in an Accord: 1. Clogged engine oil passages: The combustion of fuel, which is the power source of the engine, is determined by the combined action of ignition, intake, and fuel injectors. If the intake volume decreases, ignition weakens, or fuel injection reduces, the power output will be insufficient, leading to a jerking sensation. 2. Dirty transmission fluid: This can cause damage to the solenoid valves. If sludge in the transmission fluid circulates and blocks the oil passages in the valve body, jerking issues will occur. Over time, this can lead to a series of transmission problems such as overheating, harsh shifting, and slipping. 3. Break-in period: Slight jerking during driving is normal during this period because the vehicle's power output and component engagement are not at their optimal levels. Additionally, the transmission control module has a self-learning mechanism that continuously adjusts oil pressure for smoother gear shifts.
