A/T Experiencing Shift Shock

[mike_0197]

Dear Tsikoteers;

Please give me advise about experiencing "shift shock" when you shift from P to D or R. May problema ba ang tranny if may naramdaman ako na shift shock di naman gannon ka lakas pero may ramdam mo.
but during draving wala problema naman sa hatakan ok siya?

Apprecaited your advise in advance

Try having the auto-tranny fluid drained and replaced. Also have the filter replaced as well. If the shift shock is still there, it might require more expensive repairs to fix.

........Can you please elaborate this "shift shock". If it means it jerks when you shift to D, your engine's RPM might be too high because the engine has not attain its normal operating temperature and the ECU is feeding more gas to the engine. But if the RPM is still high even at normal operating temp of the engine, you may want to adust the air fuel mixture to have the correct RPM, IMO.

or baka naman me naririnig sya tog sound pag nag kakambyo sya from park to DRIVE

what do you mean by SHIFT SHOCK?

[ghosthunter]

Shift shock is the jerky transition when the automatic tranny shifts between gears.

Ah ok,

Shift to the "D" position, and try to drive gently, with smooth and gradual acceleration. Until the vehicle reaches a speed of 50-60 km/h or 30-37 mph, you should feel the gears shift at least twice (from first to second, and from second to third). These shifts should be made very smoothly, without jerks or slipping.

By "smooth shift" I mean it should be smooth but you should feel it at the moment the rpm drops down; it feels like the car slows down for a very short instance and then accelerates again. You also can note the transmission shifting moment by the slight change in the engine tone.

But when the transmission is extremely worn it may shift with quite a strong jerk, shudder or a delay (especially from first to second speed).

Driving at a speed of 40-50 km/h or 25-30 mph, if you press down the accelerator pedal for a few seconds, you should feel downshifting to the lower gear, if the automatic transmission works properly.

Taken from the Link, hope this will help.

ako din sir naexperience ko jerk sa shifting A/T due to high rpm, so ang ginawa linis ng MAF, choke, air filter at palit ng intake sensor.. ayos na naman...

pero pag malakas nga yung jerk as in me "thud" sound pag reverse, drive or neutral.. sure me tama na yung gear mo...

Check your CV Joint there about to worn out. Its common to an Automatic tranny specially the age (?) of your car.

It can be one of the culprit. Before I had this shift shock in my car, nawala lang siya ng nagparepair ako ng suspension arm.

Check as well as your suspension kung ok pa.
