give us more info.. at real low rpms the car will jump if you are going to slow for the gear that you are in. i would bet u probably know how to drive though so. do you mean it jerks you backwards like when you mash on the gas or it jerks forward like putting on the brakes?

This is kinda hard to explain but it jerks backwards sometimes when you shift gears not going fast just normal driving it will only jerk backwards 1 or 2 times and its in low rpms

i would do that too, when learning to drive a stick. you are hittin the gas and do it, get on the gas a little just as the clutch pedal is almost all the way out, so it drags a tad and has a smoother power delivery. i have two friends i taught to drive a stick with my car and they did it too, just be smoother. atleast thats what i think it is. hope i helped you out

lol

its the trottle sensor.... it does the same thing with my d16
i give it a little gaz which is not recognized then a little more and it jerks foward as if i jumped on the gaz...

that must be your problem because at first (for parking) you dont use constant gaz thats why its so visible.

Try while driving on 3rd to let go of the gaz a then press a little quickly. it should jerk but not as much as in first gear.

My car did this because of motor mounts. could very well be that, too. I got used to it.
