[QUOTE="deodorant, post: 1286062, member: 28131"] Firstly, I couldn't find any dedicated car problem forum so I hope I'm not posting this in the wrong place. Anyway I put in an open pod air filter (K&N) in my Savvy not too long ago. Since then, the car has developed a problem of [b]heavy[/b] jerking under acceleration in the 1k-3k rpm range, most noticeable in 1st and 2nd gears. 3k+ rpm is fine. Any ideas what the problem could be? I can D/C the battery to reset the ECU and this eliminates the jerking for ... maybe 30-40 km ... and then the problem gradually comes back. Sooo, what should be my next course of action? I haven't had the car looked at by any mechanic. Send it to Proton SC? Should I get the Speedworks guys to look at it instead? Or get them to put back my original filter before sending the car to proton sc (you know, for warranty issues)? [/QUOTE]
