Alright guys help me out on this ..

I'm at a red light, I want a quick launch .. Now once i put my foot on the pedal i want it to reach about 4500-5000 rpms .. ok car is stopped its obviously in first gear, now light turns green i want to step on it a little hard, start off in first then it seems to skip that first gear and go right into gear that it wants so i can have that quick launch. Like i guess it goes right into second or something ..

it probably reaches 2k or 2500k rpms then it shifts and then i get the high RPMs that i want it to reach .. and the shift is kinda like a jerk but you can feel that its not suppose to happen .. ?

This is not in SST mode btw.

But other than that quick launch issue, driving normally when i want it to shift before 3k rpms its a beautiful smooth shift.

Anyone understand ? lol.

If its not common with the LS its going right to the dealer tomorrow, got warrenty on it for 4 years.

TIA !

This is normal, as you would find if you just searched.
The trans in 2000 to 2002 models will start in 2nd gear, unless you exceed 70% throttle, then it will kick down to first.
