Why Does an Automatic Transmission Car Jerk When Starting?
1 Answers
Reasons for the jerking sensation when starting an automatic transmission car: 1. The fewer gears an automatic transmission car has, the stronger the jerking sensation during gear shifts; 2. The intensity of the jerking sensation during gear shifts is closely related to the driver's control skills. If the engine speed and vehicle speed just meet the gear shift standard, the jerking sensation during upshifting will be relatively strong; 3. If the jerking sensation during gear shifts is very strong, it indicates an abnormality in the transmission. You can first check whether the transmission fluid is insufficient or has deteriorated. If the transmission fluid is fine, it is recommended to go to a professional repair shop for further inspection of the transmission control system. An automatic transmission means the driver does not need to shift gears manually; the vehicle will automatically select the appropriate gear based on the driving speed and traffic conditions.
