cuz...

i'm really happy with it. very smooth shifting(barely noticeable)

if you had any problem with it(5spd AUTO transmission), what was the problem?


i got a sig now~ yay~

how do you set to show your sig everytime you post?
do i have to check the "show signature" box everytime i post?

 

Harsh shifting (especially when cold), would "slap" around sometimes (shift, and then shift back real fast resulting in a "lurch" or loud "slap" sound).

I had the TSB applied for poor cold shifting and it helped, although sometimes it still "slaps" (just not as loud/hard). Also, still sometimes when I'm slowing down and then want to accelerate quickly again (like to pass a car that is stopped/turning/etc), the engine will rev and the car will start to take off, and then it will upshift (I think) pretty hard... this results in a lurch (happened this morning when slowing down for a light that turned green - I think I hit the gas again at about 10 MPH).

Has this been anyone else's experience? I know that when I took delivery of the car it was shifting poorly and so I checked and the transmission fluid levels were pretty low (would barely register on the stick, if at all). I then took it back to the dealer and they filled it up properly, which seemed to help somewhat.

It does however shift smoothly if I accelerate at a more or less constant rate.

 

Not really a problem as in a defect, but an issue -

I don't like the lurching downshift when going down a hill around 25-30mph. To get around it, I just slip the tranny into manual mode and choose my own gear...

 

I also get this in my car..It will jerk when you do a full stop after accellarating fast.. then will jerlk again when you step on the gas..the rpm goes high then the car jumps to speed.. I got service and check today..they said its because of the engine being so prowerful and all, then the 5 sp auto trans... I dont buy it.. the good thing is they recorded it on the to nissan and hopefully nissan will look into this problem...
easy solution, be gentle I guess...
