In the last couple days I've noticed that when I roll from a stop in first or second, right before the clutch is fully let out it feels like the rear loses traction. I checked the tires and they're perfectly fine. The longer I drive throughout the day, the worse it gets. It almost feels like the tcs is kicking in but I know I'm not spinning any wheels.

Since I know someone will ask here's whats been done to my car recently:
cams install, uca, panhard, lca, alignment installed.

I do also have the fuel pump TSB but this is involving strictly city driving and it has no stuttering. Just feels like... I guess wheel hop? without the hopping. Any ideas would be appreciated. My cars been in/out of the shop way too much recently and I'd just like to have it running good again.

 

have you had the same issue with TCS off??? Just because you don't feel your car losing traction doesnt' mean the TCS is not kicking in. In my auto if I leave the TCS on it will hamper my acceleration when I hammer it from a stop. But, with it off I hammer it and just go, andI don't feel any loss of traction either that would cause the TCS to kick in when it's on under the same conditions.

 

Forgot to mention I turned the TCS off as soon as i noticed what was happening. Same issue still happens. Also made sure all tires were at the same pressure just in case. Other than that, I'm not sure what it could be. Maybe the uca coming loose and letting my pinion angle be dynamic?

 

Anyone?

 

Are you sure your clutch isnt slipping?

 

I was going to say that you should check all the after market stuff . Mainly I was going to say the UCA but I see you already mentioned it in post #3. that would mean that the axle would be doing a balancing act on the drive shaft, shocks and springs . check that out quick like. good luck ( let us know )

 

How does it feel when a clutch is slipping?
I was actually wondering if that was it on the drive home tonight. I don't know how it could be though, I just barely ticked over 35k today

 

A slipping clutch feels like you are spinning your wheels. Your engine is reving, but you aren't going as fast as you should be. Also, check your LCAs to be sure the bushings aren't shot.

 

Sounds like a slipping clutch. Same thing was happening to a buddy's G35.

 

Clutch maybe
