Vitara 1994 1.6lt Auto with O/D

When pulling off from a standstill in Drive I can feel a jerking as if the box is changing up and down.

Once the car is doing about 10kph it seems fine.

If I put the box in Low and pull off it seems fine.

Any Ideas please.

I am off on Sunday for a heart operation so will be a week or so before I am back on line after that.

I assume you've checked oil level? What colour is the oil? Have you checked uj's and other suspension components for play?

Thanks for the reply Scrawn - Yes oil is OK in level and colour and it is definitely the box.

Is it the AW4 box? Are the bands adjustable in those boxes?

Not trying to be smart did you check the oil level with the car running?

Yes - But it also has marks for running/not running levels.

Just got back from hospital and a heart op so it will be a few weeks before I will be able to cheak it all out :(
