It's almost like the transmission is confused sometimes. I'll be driving down the freeway and let off the gas for a second then when I get back on the gas I can feel it re-engage. I've never felt that sensation when driving any other car.
Also, sometimes I'll back out of my parking stall, put it into D5 and it takes 2 seconds before it engages. I'v eactually taken it into the shop for this one and they updated the software and replaced some sort of module. It seemed to work for a while but it's back again.
And then, if I jump on the gas at slower speeds and let off before the shift into whatever the next gear might be it hangs in that gear for a few beats then upshifts really hard.
I'm just wondering if this is how all LSs drive or if it's only mine. I bought the car as a Ford Buyback due to tranny problems and Ford rebulit the transmission. So did they fix the problems from before and this is how it's supposed to work or are these the problems that the previous owner was having? it just seems odd that Kia can have a tranny that works more smothly...
