Tranny feels jerky at 20..
I have an 03 CL. (with the goooood tranny...)
Anyways. When I drive it hard, it feels normal. But when I am just cruising, the tranny feels herky-jerky. Especially around the 20 to 30 mph range. Not when I am excellerating, but when just going a constant 20 - 30 mph.. It feels like you are lightly taping the gas. Anyone else feel it?
Why do our cars seem to slow themselves down (almost like down shifting) when we let off the gas? I feel this mainly around the 40-50 mph range. I let off the gas and the gas feels like you downshifted and it holds you back. Never had an auto hold a car back at all.
Just wondering. I read that someone elses 03 had a bad tranny. I know mine was built in late 02. So that arises questions to wether my tranny is a god/bad one.

The slowing down when you let off the gas is definitely the gradient control... and it's a great feature... allows me to slow down w/o braking when my radar detector goes off
