Hi,
My car jerks off and on when i start after stopping at traffic lights or in slow moving traffic uphill. , kind of vibration on first gear and later on it goes smoothly. I'm not sure what's causing this. I have recently serviced the car. It's a Volkswagen Passat 1.4 Saloon.

That doesn't sound pleasant, I would raise this issue with Volkswagen some of their transmissions can be calibrated to alter the engagement point due to wear.
It may need a road test with a technician to replicate the fault.

Hi,
Do you know what could cause this issue. And if i were to fix it, how much would it be? Will be that be covered under mechanical warranty. As i'm paying for Auto Sure.
