My tranny is going crazy. When I drive it "jumps" when the tranny shifts to 2nd and when I reverse I takes about 1 min to engage. I’m taking it to the dealer tomorrow, but I need advice if anyone had similar experiences and warranty info. Also I drive in D5.

haha u kinda sound like my dealer mechanic, its normal is his two favorite words, but ya those are normal to a degree, 1 minute to get into reverse is bad though it wouldnt hurt to get a free inspection if ur under warantee

ya 1 min to get into reverse?? From the time I go from Park to reverse, it's instantaneous, but from reverse to drive sometimes is like 1-2 second...not 1 min :wow:
anyways, it's normal for the car to feel jumpy or lurchy when the engine is cold...our trannies have something called grade logic, which modified the shift points, and will shift at a higher RPM's to help warm up the engine asap...
that's why...but if the lurching continues or become violent even after the temp guage reads normal, have that checked out.
