K, hope someone can help, my clutch has been kinda making my car jump when im feathering into first from a stop. Lotta traffic where i live and a ****load of people who do not know how to drive. Its not really jumping but it almost feels like my transmition is moving, bumping the car up and down. I know i need new shocks, but i really cant tell if that might be the problem, do i need more clutch fluid, engine mount, please help.

ok, so the problem went away for about a week, then came back, still havent gotten the time to get under the car and check it out, but im going to on thurs, my only day off this week, yay. anyway if anyone even has any idea where to start it would be much appreciated. when the car is not warmed up it doesnt do it, usually only happens when the car has been running for a while, it almost feels like the gears are slipping, but i cant really tell......... any suggestions........

sorry I can't help ya man, I'd actually have to physically feel what you are talking about. if it doesn't do it when cold, it shouldn't be your shocks.. plus, your shocks should emit a really ****ty clicking sound when you bounce your car. New motor mounts never hurt anything, and are reletively cheep.. if you see nothing underneath, go with that and see if it works

ill try that, i replaced my clutch fluid the other day, it didnt help, also played with my a/f settings a little, that helped, but not much. i guess ill try the engine mounts, probly need a new clutch anyway, so ill do that while im at it, thanks anyway though.
