My transmission shudders on mild initial acceleration from dead stop. Dealers says I can't make it fail so here it is back, bring it back if it does it again.

Anyone else have the shudders?

 

thats a pretty bad explanation, try and explain it a lil bit more in depth such as what speed it happens at and which gear its in.

 

My '93 L did that when the fluid needed changing.

 

A better explanation, O.K., how about from a standstill/stopped at a Stop Sign either turning left or right. Normal acceleration. First gear.

Could it be my rear end causing the shudder?

I've changed the fluids.

 

Thanks for the replys

 

Dude, you are going to have to give us more to go on!

 

maybe its the engine hesitating?

 

Fluid level??

 

For ****s and grins I've narrowed it down to the differential because it only clicks/shudders when I turn. Long story short ,SVT Central says that there is a friction lubricant that should be added when changing the oil, approximately 3 to 4 ozs., I'm assuming that the Tech didn't add it at the last service at 16,000 miles.

take care

 

mine "shudderd" sorta speak when I would let off the pedal... once I changed the fluid (as apart of installing my FTVB) it cleared up 100%.... It started the shudder at around 31k miles.
