Replying to: kiawah (May 16, 2008 6:06 pm) The problems do not seem to be there all the time. When braking, and almost stopped it feels like the wheels are out of round. Like a flat spot. Also, notice it at higher speeds, but harder to describe. Bought new tires, problem same before and after. Replies to this message: wwest (Jun 04, 2008 8:39 pm)

Is that the feeling you're trying to describe...?? These transaxles will do the same thing, upshift, as you coastdown, throttle closed and/or braking, below 40-30 MPH. 10-0MPH is often described as being bumped slightly from behind, and 40-30MPH as a "slingshot effect".
