| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: This condition could be related to item 2. this condition started last winter and is getting worse.) after being at a stop and releasing the brakes, i get a hard shake/thud from the driveline/brakes. this occurs in 90% of stops/starts. (e.g., if it was normal, it would do it all the time to some degree.) there is no metal on metal noise, just the shake/thud like the brakes are releasing too hard or the driveline has too much lash in it. (condition is worse if you come to a hard stop, before starting again.) 2) sometimes (about 20% of the time) after coming to a complete stop at a stop sign or red light, the transmission goes into first gear hard and/or the converter/torsen differential is unlocking/locking incorrectly. it will actually rock the vehicle forward. sometimes it gives the same sensation as in item 3. (actually, on a few occasions i get item 2 problem followed by an item 1 problem. *ak |
