Sep 10, 2014 · I’m not experienced as a mechanic or even as an auto handyman besides changing out simpler parts - my disclaimer. I know you have an automatic. I am experiencing a similar problem with an 06 Honda CR-V manual 5 speed. I get the shudder going uphill and while accelerating in lower RPM range (for a Honda) in 4th and 5th gear.

Jul 26, 2023 · Hello, 2 months ago my car overheated when driving up a mountain in Spain during the Summer where its between 30-40 Celcius. Since then the car works fine unless you are constantly going up a hill or mountain for a period of time. If you return to a flat surface it cools down and instantly cools down if you turn on the heating system. It also overheats faster and sometimes on flatter surfaces ...

Oct 4, 2007 · Hello, I have a 96 GMC yukon with 160k miles and I hear a rattling sound whenever I go uphill or accellerate quickly (i.e. getting on to the highway). These are the only times it happens. I can rev the engine in park or neutral and cannot hear the rattling.

Mar 13, 2011 · 30 year old Maserati Quattroporte III, well maintaned by PO as far as I know. 4.9l V8, Weber carbs, Chrysler Torqueflite 727A transmission. The car keeps losing power (especially uphill) and goes slower and slower until I have to pull over to the side of the road, and either (at first) wait for a few minutes, then continue on (the car works ok initially, then displays the same symptoms) or ...

Oct 26, 2016 · I have a 1995 Park Avenue 3.8 with 278,000 miles. Runs fine until about 3rd gear and 55mph when if under any load at all the whole car jumps and shutters. If not under load, like going up-hill, no shutter or skip and runs smooth. If accelerator pressed at all, even when running smooth the shutter begins. Normally does not shutter at lower speeds. Thought it was the transmission, so serviced ...

Nov 2, 2009 · So when I am driving along and the vehicle is in top gear and I begin to go up a hill and the car needs to downshift to maintain the speed it begins to jerk around like it is having trouble downshifting. Also sometimes when sitting at a red light or stop sign the vehicle jerks a little. It will sometimes also have trouble taking off from a stop when I …

Mar 8, 2012 · Since it happens going up hill and on accelerating, that usually means low fuel pressure, and that means filter or pump. If a fuel pressure test is normal, then it could still be the filter, which is both expensive to buy and expensive to replace on this car.

Apr 5, 2013 · I have a 92 (3.3L) New Yorker 5th Avenue that has makes the car jerk badly going uphill and occasionally makes a backfire / misfire noise. It is a general jerking, not localized (right / left front) by feel. It starts ok and runs smoothly at idle but once you put it in drive and start acceleration, it begins to jerk. It has over 200k mi. I have …

Sep 6, 2021 · It’s a 1.6 gdi engine. It stutters when it accelerates slowly or going uphill. If I floor it it stops. Could this be a fuel filter or low pressure pump? I think the cam follower is bad, but read it doesn’t show symptoms before failing. Is this true? Could it be the follower? Thanks.

Sep 4, 2012 · He posted about uphill overheating being the radiator cap in 2009, and twice in 2012 that I found on these forums. My 2004 Jeep WJ w/ the 4.0 was overheating going uphill. Research was showing everything from a clogged radiator to a blown head gasket.
