When im driving the car in SS, it tends to jurk a bite when im in second gear..
i was wondering when its the best to switch gears from second to third and then to forth.

( yes i know this might be a dumb question but im a young one ) lol

thanx

 

Well... first of all, did you hit the rev limiter?

If you didn't, maybe you have some problem with your tranny... I got some problems with my tranny...

Glad to see another TL bro in Toronto...

 

Yeah, you have to shift just past the redline before the fuel cut-off kicks in.

if you have a 2000 or 2001, the tranny automatically shifts from 1st to second and then allows you to shift up from there. I am wondering if that might be the jerk you feel?

Like a manual car, if your in second gear and you give it a little gas, it will tend to jerk around a little more than when your in full auto, because the small gears are more torquey than the higher gears, its totally natural unless you have a realllllll jerky transmission, other than that if its just a bit more noticeably jerkier than full auto its totally normal.
