Dreamscape36 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Hi people, can anyone help!! I am having a nightmare with my Supra, its an auto TT 1993 2jz-gte When it is cold it idles at 1400rpm so when I put it in drive or reverse I get a huge lurch/jolt from the car, also while im driving I can feel the gear changes, slight jolt. When the car has warmed up it idles at 700-800rpm and the jolt is not half as bad but still there. I have had some theories as to what it is but nothing concrete and nothing I can reslove without spending a fortune and finding out it wasn't that etc I was told by a Supra "expert" it could be the kick down cable loose, after some research it doesn't even have a kick down cable! Also I have been told by a couple of people it could be the gearbox oil filter and oil. Has anyone else experienced this trouble and does anyone have any suggestion as to what it could be please Pulling my hair out here!!!! Plus recently I installed a front mount intercooler and this jolting started a couple of weeks after that, could that effect it? Many thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swampy442 Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 Its very possibly the oil, how does it look, nice and red or brown and dirty? Does it smell burnt? Wouldnt hurt to flush the box and change the filter as a matter of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TT Paul Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 as above check oil . on dipstick two levels hot/cold warm car up check level as this is when you check level with autobox warmed up could be low before flushing maybe top it up if needed see what happens, FIC won't make any difference to box, good luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamscape36 Posted October 15, 2011 Author Share Posted October 15, 2011 (edited) My oil level is fine and it looks nice and clean, Im now being told it could be a vacuum problem or massive air leak somewhere! No Burning smell from it either, thanks for you messages though guys, in the words of tesco, every little helps Edited October 15, 2011 by Dreamscape36 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dreamscape36 Posted October 20, 2011 Author Share Posted October 20, 2011 Now checked for air leaks by spraying brake cleaner around but couldn't find anything wrong there. Still none the wiser. Confused and frustrated!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
