Hi ppl

once again another Bj problem. I am getting a kinda slight stuttering...then a hard jerk when i am reversing aggressively. I took car to Chaguanas auto supplies to do diagnostic on transmission. I went for test drive with diagnostic man. He felt the problem. He said it not Transmission. He saying that it was the instrument panel need changing. Some part on a circuit not good.
I did diagnostic with him . he say vehicle has no signs of error code. therefore from his experience with other 323's the instrument panel need changing and by an electrician.

Is this possible???Is this true???

Seems like he sure cuz he put it on the job sheet for me.

Give me some ideas ppl . thanks

could just be a bad electrical connection that gets stretched when the engine twists the other way (like in reverse)

the mechanic could be right too, but ask him what specifically causing it nuh,. he might know its a simple fix and want to tell you some song and dance about fine circuit board an ting

^^ yup, could be a bad front mount (between engine and radiator).

Btw, does it jerk when you now put in the gear, or only when you're already moving?? If it's when you select the gear, I'd say its the tranny... if it's only when moving, then it might be suspension related: CV joint, axle etc

if i reverse slowly and normal i don't get the problem. Only when i put it on reverse and press hard the car pulls off .. dips down and jerks hard like if someone ran into you.

If the mounts aint busted check to see if they are tightened properly.

Either busted engine mounts, tranny on its way out or a combination of the two!

I checked Glasses in Longdenville he said it is the transmission. Costing me $1200 to get repaired. but also I think my transmission side mount need changing. Do mounts whether or not busted looses tension after a while and need changing. cuz if so i will have all changed at the same time?
