Slight bucking at low RPM

Hello everyone,

I have been lurking this forum for awhile, useful stuff! I figure I should come out of my shell and post a question to the knowledgeable circle of people on this forum.

When I hit between 1000 and 1200 RPM, I feel slight bucking...enough to bother me. When I add brake it gets worse. Anyone experienced this before?

Thanks in advance

James

Is it a manual or auto tranny? Im assuming auto cause you cant really run that low rpms with a manual, it takes about 1500 to even get the car moving

well yea, just not in first, and its not going to be the optimal gear if you are turning that low

It turned out to be warped rotors. I took it to the dealership I bought it from and they took it to NTB and had them trued.

I'm satisfied with how this story ended

Yea...I did forget to mention that I was pushing on brakes at 1000 - 1300 rpm.

Thanks for the replies everyone.

James
