My car has been driving very strange lately. When I shift into 2nd and give it full throttle my car jerks. Same thing when I do that with 3rd. Its kind of wierd any inputs? I know my coils are all good, timings good (cam, crank sensors), knock sensors good.

 

Have you checked your tranny fluid?

 

yes, it is fine. But the clutch smells a little after everytime i drive it. It still grabs pretty good though.

 

Maybe you are not Shifting Properly.

 

I am shifting properly but my flywheel needs to be resurfaced. I can feel the shakeyness of it. I am thinking my car needs a new injector? I think its number 3, im not sure though.

 

Your clutch is probably on it's last breath, you should go get it checked out to be safe and certain.

 

well, if you car needs a new injector, do you think your clutch would smell?

 

no but someone said something about my tranny. So i brought up the clutch problem....... and i dont know how a jerkyness could be caused by a transmission. It was just getting off topic

 

Jekyness can be caused by a bad or a worn clutch. If your Injector goes bad, your engine will MissFire and you will get a lot of engine Shake, And it feels like you are driving a Kia.

 

yea, i think its time for a new clutch. any suggestion for daily use and occasionally track.

I could be wrong, wait for others to give feed backs, but I hear good things about this brand.

IMO, CE is too expensive, you should just go with stock parts unless you are serious about power.

 

My auto's shifts are a bit jerky under medium-to-hard acceleration, 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd. Clutch you recon?

 

My car does the same exact thing, and especially when it is cold outside. The problem wears off as the car heats up.

 

That Is Wired

 

i talked to a mechanic today and he said that it would not be the clutch making the jerking. He said if the clutch was bad, it would not engage properly. He said try going from 1st to 3rd gear and if the RPM's jump and go back down then i would need a new clutch. The problem is most likely a misfire.

 

It could be a bad Fuel Injector, but in most cases you will get a SES light. Scan the computer to retrieve the codes before opening a Thread.
That should give you enough to start with, and if you don't find any codes, go to another mechanic.
Good Luck.

 

The TCC solenoid is located in the transmission on the valve body. To verify that this is causing your problem, disconnect the four wire plug that plugs into the side of the transmission and drive the car. If your problem is cured, replace the solenoid.

 

What in the hell is that speaker thing in your sig? Is that a human hand or a little kids?

 

computer was scaned and had no codes.

 

repeat after me: "AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION DOES NOT USE A CLUTCH."

 

if you're looking for a new clutch you can get a 00/01 5th gen pressure plate, friction disc and throw out bearing from forum member DAVEB for 191 + shipping... send him a PM and he will give you contact information...
