Hey guys, i was wondering if anyone else witnessed this. After starting up the car from at least 12 hours of no use, i let the car warm up about 30 secs, and then i pull. However, during the first 20 or so seconds of driving, i feel like some metal parts under my engine clanking (changing gears? shock adjustments?) dunno what it really is, but it like 2 metal parts rubbing up or coming in contact or out of contact with each other, felt through the break pedal. It only happens at that time, afterwerds, driving normally won't produce the same feeling...any idea what it may be? I'm thinking just a unwarmed transmission changing gears?

 

Is it still under warranty? Take it in...........

 

how many people are going to ask about this...

This is the ABS system running a self-test. There is nothing to worry about.

 

really? Noice! i had thought it might be a test, or just some start up thing cause it doens't happen after that at all, but its so odd feeling...

 

Just ABS system performing a self-test. It's normal. The odd thing is, after putting 10,000 miles or so on my TSX, the jerk became less and less noticable.
