  • Slight shudder at take off..

    Firstly, hello to you all. New here, finally bought myself a Prado and am loving it. '08 diesel auto RV spec, travelled 200,000km

    The vehicle has been serviced regularly and I know the previous owner well enough. Even got to drive it for a good long while before buying it.

    It feels remarkably good for 200k - like new in fact. The only cause for concern is a slight juddering feel - seemingly coming from the front right wheel area when moving off from a standstill with the steering wheel turned slightly right. It is just three rapid-fire vibrations that are gone in an instant. Almost feels like its finding traction on gravel - that type of sensation, but it happens on hard surfaces too.

    Any help diagnosing this would be great... my mechanic thinks I'm dreaming. But I'm not. :-)

    Cheers team

    Whilst the engine may be serviced regularly, and the drivetrain gear oils may have been tended to, the automatic transmission is one area which the workshop service schedules do not seem to cater to well (including the fuel filter, but that's another topic altogether).

    Have you had the transmission fluid serviced? The shudder may be due to old, burnt trans fluid. Definitely worth checking the fluid condition, unless you already know that it's clean.
