Has anyone experience this problem?

When I take my foot off the gas and leave it in gear (in any gear) the car seems to jerk a little.
Not too much to the point of stalling, but I do notice it. And its not like I'm going way to slow for that gear, never running around 2000 rpms. It reminds me when I had
my Ford Mustang 91', when I used to get vabor lock. (when the gas gets so hot, it
boils in the fuel line) Not saying this is whats happening; since its been around 60 degrees, but reminds me of that feeling.

Is it because my car is new, talking 200 miles old? Maybe bad dealer gas?

I took it to my dealer and had a tech drive it around the block. He of course said there was nothing wrong... I dont believe him, he was just trying to push me away.. (More work for him)

Any ideas?

thx.

Stick or auto?

tC's 5-speed is tricky. NO idea why is it happening - mine jerks if I'm going too fast for the gear and abruptly release the gas - but it's logical. Same in 1st / 2nd - you have to be really nice to the gas pedal, or it will jerk.

I haven't noticed anything like that. Course that doesn't mean it isn't happening...

It's a stick, and it only happens when I take my foot of the gas.

????????

Any stick will do that when you let off the guess. Just like it jerks forward if you press the gas down.

It's normal. It happens in low gears more than higher gears due to there being a large power difference between some gas and no gas in lower gears. It's also worse before the car warms up.

Nothing to worry about. Carry on.

mine does that too, but yeah what they said

Right off the start, from 1st gear the car hesitates? Almost as if, its not getting gas?

Are these problems related?
