Every time I hit 3 RMP my car jerks and drops to 2 RMP. It's does it at 30 and 40 speed. Is that normal or is there a problem? Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Apr 27, 2010, 4:22 PM Post #2 of 4 (1807 views) Re: Need help with a Saturn Sign In Not sure. Is the car just upshifting and you aren't used to it? T firefly13 New User Apr 28, 2010, 11:02 AM Post #3 of 4 (1796 views) Re: Need help with a Saturn Sign In I may not be use to it. Upshifting sounds like it. It only happens when I hit 30 and 40 mph. My RPM gauge goes from 3 to 2 each time. Tom Greenleaf Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Apr 28, 2010, 2:09 PM Post #4 of 4 (1785 views) Re: Need help with a Saturn Sign In OK: If not used to it that could be common shift intervals and yes RPMs drop when it goes to next higher gear. Some may feel a bit abrupt to you and be normal or not normal. I don't know how from here to suggest on what level of abrupt is normal except to have another with you or another drive it who would know from similar cars if normal or not. Check or have checked the level and color of the transmission fluid. Should indicate in its safe/operating range and not be dark or burnt which would be a bad sign. Normal color for ATF is pinkish/red if you put a drop on white paper, T   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
