98 Civic - auto tranny question
I have a 9 Civic EX and I wondered if what I am experiencing is normal..
When I am driving and am coasting to a stop (eg. approaching a red light), when I step on the gas to accelerate (once the light goes green), the tranny "lurches"...It is almost like it is too high a gear and when I step on the gas, it has to suddenly downshift to the next lowest gear. The result is that the car sort of lurches forward as the tranny downshifts.. I know that this is no luxury car but if this is normal, I have lost ALL respect for Honda. This is a replacement tranny from Honda and I can't remember this problem occuring with the original tranny (until it gave me other problems!) Any thoughts would be helpful.. Thanks, MG |
