Jerky forward move and ...
97 V6 4.2L 2WD 55k
This is a new problem and I haven't quite figured out the full symptoms. Here are what I have noticed so far:
1) Cold engine, start motor, put gear in rear, release brake pedal, car doesn't move. This happened once yesterday. Eventually, gear put in D, car moved a little, gear in R, pulled out of driveway.
2) Stop at traffic light, release brake pedal on green light, gear engages with a jerk (clunking, gas pedal not pressed). Tried slow release of brake pedal a few times. No jerky move.
3) Brief full stop at 4 way stop, release brake, car moves without clunking.
Transmission oil replaced about 3 years ago, 10k miles. Car not driven everyday. Thanks.
