It delayed for approximately 160 milliseconds before starting to shift. A millisecond is one-thousandth of a second.Hesitation or Lack Of ResponseWhen you shift the transmission from park to drive or any other gear, do you notice a delay before your feel the vehicle engage? Transmissions are designed to go into the correct gear every time, so when they hesitate or refuse to engage in a gear, an issue could be at the cause. While driving, do you press on the gas pedal, and the engine revs up, but there is hesitation or lack of response in speed or acceleration? You may notice this symptom more when first driving the car during warm up. |
