What would cause a car to jerk while driving?
Hi,
I have a Hyundai Accent GVS 1.4 Petrol version car (2004 manual transmission model). Recently while i was driving back home, the car starting jerking when I slowed down and accelerated back. It jerked once and sometimes a couple of times, every time i slowed down and accelerated and then would go steady. Previously when I slowed down to the same speeds in same gear positions this never happened. I have checked the speed vs rpm ratio and there is no change as compared to previous readings I collected. I had got a new fuel pump about 6-8 months back. What would be the problem and what is the suggested fix??? Regards, Swetal Gajjar |
Mine was doing that. It turned out to be misfire from old spark plugs. New plugs did the trick.

Thanks, bmetzgar

i'am having the same issue even after the spark plug changing> even on odle if gear is changed, the whole car jerks. doesnt hapen when engine is cool.
any help?? |
Wouldn't that be a fuel related problem.....like bad filters, bad fuel injectors or even contaminated fuel? Just asking.....

Car Jerks when slowing down
Read this comprehensive guide on car jerking when slowing down reasons and solution. Read Here

I didn't see any mention of a possible problem with the torque converter clutch (TCC) not disengaging when slowing down.
There could be a few reasons for that , but if all the other suggested checks don't produce anything, the TCC is a good area to investigate. |

Providing them with detailed information about your car's symptoms, along with any records or documentation from previous inspections, can assist in their investigation. They may need to perform further diagnostic tests, such as checking for error codes, conducting a thorough transmission inspection, or examining the suspension components, to pinpoint the exact cause of the problems you're experiencing. Remember to keep all communication with the dealer and any repair shops documented, as it may be helpful if you need to escalate the issue or refer to it in the future. |
