jolt or lunge issue - United Bimmer Community

**RosiBeamer** · 04-01-2010, 08:02 PM

Recently in my 2007 325i when I come to a stop there's a small lunge forward. Its similar to when you stop hard and the body of the car still goes forward and you get that forward pull on your body, then fall back into your seat. I have the same moving experience at slow speeds and medium speeds while stopping.
It feels like the car lunges or jolts forward slightly. Its kinda hard to explain I suppose if your not in the car.lol.. I've taken a couple of people for rides to see if its just me, and they feel it to. Has anyone had this happen? If so what was the problem and how to fix would be greatly appreciated.
First timer to the forum, any help would be appreciated. thks all..

Just a guess, but I wonder if your throttle linkage might be binding, or is in need of lubrication.

Which gearbox is in your car? DSG?

not sure what gearbox but I bought it from the dealer brand new. all stock parts. I havent made any modifications to it.

DSG boxes can occasionally have a tendency to have a slight lunge upon stopping. It's due to the electronically controlled clutch. It could however be developing other problems, I'd take it in for a scan just to find out.
