Hi All,
For a few years now on occasions when I engage cruise control (I don't use it that often) I get a sporadic jerking through the vehicle at the point-of-balance between acceleration and deceleration, like when just after cresting a slight rise in the road when the vehicle might be coasting so to speak. This happens primarily at highway speeds ~100kph.
I'm thinking it is caused by play in the driveline somewhere, BUT the jerking stopped when I tested for its occurance in 4wd high range.
The jerking in 2wd is what I would describe as like a sudden intermittent electrical clitch or bad contact. It's quite a sharp jerk.
Is anybody familiar with this situation and can explain what is causing the problem? It's nothing I can't live with, but it's just annoying and I like to fix annoying things.
Thanks for any input.
