Lee Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 For the last two winters, when it gets cold out, 32F-ish or less, and when engine is cold, it lurches forward on start up. It doesn't keep trying to go forward. Just that fire up lurch. Fluid is red and not burnt smelling. Levels are correct. Is there an easy fix or just deal with it? Automatic.

99RegalGS Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 My car does the same thing. My car will also lurch when I rev it in Park too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 does it have to do with the mounts Robby? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robby1870 Posted November 18, 2003 Report Share Posted November 18, 2003 does it have to do with the mounts Robby? No, its just the fact that you try to start it when its cold. It doesnt want to turn over when its cold, and when it finally "catches" its a big jolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tranny being in park at the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
