Why is there a jerking sensation when shifting gears?
1 Answers
Every vehicle experiences a jerking sensation when shifting gears, the difference lies only in the intensity. Driver's control technique issues: The intensity of gear shift jerkiness is closely related to the driver's control technique. If the timing of gear shifting is not well mastered, a jerking sensation will naturally occur. Mismatch between RPM and gear position: Generally speaking, at low speeds, if the engine RPM and vehicle speed have just reached the gear shift standard, the upshift jerkiness will be relatively strong; if the throttle is slightly larger and both the engine RPM and vehicle speed are significantly higher than the gear shift standard, the jerkiness during gear shifting will be relatively small.
