Hi all,

Since yesterday my 1999 3.5 auto jerks bad when I move it into reverse from either Drive or Park.
Moving it out of reverse is 100% smooth.

I checked the ATF and it is on level, clean-red and not smelly. Was replaced not long ago.
I'm thinking mountings. Could it be only effecting going into reverse?
Any other suggestions?

Thanks
Pierre

At what is it idling at?

If the idle is to high it could cause it. Drive will not as it normally selects 2nd and then 1st.

On reverse it goes directly into reverse.

Very interesting - thanks

PS: The problem came right by itself a few selections later
