06 SS issue

[99lss]

my 06 SS has this issue when you take off on say the very first take off of the day the car jurks kind of like it has a clogged fuel filter or something, but it only does it until the car has its first gear shift, after that it is fine! i have taken it to the dealer several times and the did the fuel system and really didnt help, it doesnt usually do it if i start the car with the remote. i think the problem has something to do with the electronic throttle control but i am no mechanic. can anyone shed some light on this?

make sure the transmission fluid is at the correct level when hot when at a level location...if the fluid is low when cold ,,this could account for the first shift on starting up to be harsh..

this should be added 2oz at a time,,, until at the full hot mark..when vehicle is hot..

the trans is ok fluid level is fine car jerks or surges like the gas pedal is being feathered and only does it of the very first take off car doesnt shift harsh at all

next time put shift select in low/1st...see if it occurs..

you think its throttle control ???

Is his happening under hard accelerations, or just normal driving?

[99lss]

i will try putting it in low and taking off and see if that has any different response

[99lss]

it does it during normal acceleration mostly it only does it when you first take off on first start up i live on a residential street so it is very rare i take off fast and once i stop at the corner and turn on the main street the car is fine.
