Default transmission prob.....

hey everyone
bein having some annoyingness when i go in 2nd gear
when let off the clutch it feels like it lags catching the gear and jolts a lil when it does
its pretty lame espcially with only 10.5k miles on it
do you think it could have anything to do with the transmission fluid?
i know i could just take it in to dealer
i just wanted to see what u guys thought
thanks

we need a little bit more than that... your driving style, engine rpm, slow or fast clutch let out, etc...

my guess is your just not used to a drive-by-wire throttle system, and it feels like the car is lagging because of the throttle delay.

mine does that to its the engine banging around and the drive by wire as the car gets older the bushings get softer is my guess
