I found if you want to avoid the clunk in to first and the lurch on take-off then ease off the brakes right at the last stage of stopping so that your vehicle is just crawling while it drops back to first. That way it won't abruptly clunk back to first, nor lurch on takeoff when it realises that first is probably a better option than second. Was the same for both BF & FG.Yeah it's not ideal but it was the only gripe I ever had with the ZF...is an otherwise awesome piece of machinery so can be forgiven for one shortcoming IMHO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
