  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

I have a brand new 2014 Equus Signature. It has the 5.0 8speed and is not operating like it should. Has anyone had problems with this transmission or had this problem? The car has 1000mi on it.

It almost feels like someone is pinching the gas line and then releasing it. But in some cases its jerky.... no real problems gears but it has a hard time holding a steady speed without it feeling a bit jerky.

Its is noticeable at all speeds.... but very noticeable when getting on the highway at about 30mph to 70mph at a slow steady incremental speed.
most of the time it is there but sometimes it goes away...

I have a call into the dealership and waiting for a call back. I'm hoping some on this forum could provide direction so I can speak intelligently with the service department.
 
How is the idle? IMO You may have a failing GDI that causes the engine to not be smooth.
