Suzuki Swift Jerk On Gear Change

unknown · January 13, 2009

Hi guys/gals

I have a Suzuki swift 1.3 2001 Jap model.

problem: recently had the jerk and taken it to the agents they replaced the sensor O2 and it was fine for few months but this happening again and not all the time sometimes. yesterday we took it to agents and they tested it couldnt find the problem. so need some help from you all to if anybody know something about this. any experience. this happens when changing from 1 --> 2 gear i guess.

thanks in advance

Checked all of your mounts? Manual vehicle I'm assuming

we changed the above mentioned sensor from agents they said that was the problem. but its not fixed we took it back recently and they went for a spin but this issue didnt show up so cant do much at the moment.

Does not seem logical about the O2 sensor. I'd say check engine mounts.

What about your cars ATF oil(Automatic Transmission Oil) condition? Have you changed oil after you purchased the vehicle? If yes, how long have you driven after the change? 30,000 kms is the maximum I think. (guys pls add up if Im wrong). My father also has a swift (2004 model) but still I think its the same design as your 2001 car (squarer model). Our car once had a gear shifting reluctance problem with its auto tranny and it got solved after an ATF change. In auto gear boxes, most of the problems get solved after an ATF oil change. Many drivers dont care about ATF oil change periods...you know. So check my points' relevance to your problem and if you haven't changed oil for many kms, get it changed and see how it goes. it wont cost you more than 5 - 6000 rs for a ATF oil change.

Good Luck!
