Transmission has slight jerk
I test drove a '15 Advanced FWD today and I noticed when switching gears (ie P->D or D->R), the car jerks just a little. When I sat in a '16 Tech SHAWD, I never noticed the slight movement. Is this characteristic normal?

I noticed from time to time in my 2015 Advance, but it's also something I've gotten used too

The only jerk is the person who greenlit the pairing of the ZF 9HP transmission to the J-series engine. <rimshot>

I'll see myself out...

LOL I find the ZF not jerky at all. The only gripe is that I have to smash the gas halfway to get it to downshift
