STUTTERS IN FIRST GEAR ON TAKE OFF - 2004 E-GEAR
Problem - When in 1st gear and floor it, it stutters for a few seconds before accelerating. If I ease into it and then floor it, then there is no problem. All the other gears work fine.
Possibility 1 - The earlier models had a problem with exactly this. You need a software upgrade.
Possibility 2 - If the ESP is on, it has been known to cut the power to avoid wheel spin. Turn the ESP off and try that.
Possibility 3 - A rolling start is always better for clutch life.
