Car acting weird...
Has anyone ever notice sometimes when you drive and you step off the car it slows down really quickly and jerks a little? I dont remember this happening before and it takes a little more power to take off I have an 03 Auto. I checked my transmission fluid and its a redish color so thats good but i think i have to leave it longer to test if it may be the tranny any other tests i can try? Im a little worried about this
Maybe a bad tank of gas?
Thanks for your help

I've noticed this as well, its the tranny downshifting and causing engine braking. I've noticed it when I stop very fast (stomp on the brakes), and sometimes when I let go of the gas but don't step on the brakes. Easy way to feel it is to shift into Spoft Shift mode and rev up to 5-6000 rpms in 2nd or 3rd and then just let go of the gas ... you'll hear the engine slow down real quick.
I don't think its necessarily a problem with your car, its been happening with mine since day one. But perhaps your problem is different than the one I'm describing?
