Ctyjet Member 72 Member For: 13y 20d Posted 21/05/14 06:24 AM Share Posted 21/05/14 06:24 AM Latley I have noticed if im manual shifting from first to second there is a pause between gear change feels like the power cuts out for a second and it jolts to second and keeps going. Iv only noticed it since I changed fuel from 95 to 98 not sure if this is just a coincidence or not. In performance mode or drive it shifts fine only when manual shifting. Does anyone know what it could be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
