Description of the problem | When slowing down in traffic or in stop and go traffic, and then have to accelerate it feels like the car hesitates or stutters to get into the next gear. If slowing down for traffic, and then accelerating the car hesitates to go forward, the engine revs but hesitates to go forward. It is like being in neutral for a few seconds. I noticed at this time the needle for the tachometer went up to past the number 4. |
