tierfruend - I find my shifts sometimes results in a lurch as I'm completing them....never before on any other manual. This happens mostly into 2nd gear (both upshift and downshift), so I find myself inadvertently trying to avoid it (ie, staying in 3rd down to 1k rpm even when a downshift 2nd is more appropriate).

This seems definitely like a CDV problem.

I have noticed myself adapt to this shifting dynamic - have to concentrate on letting the clutch out at the perfect rate to get the car not to lurch.

saalim - did you buy the part from Dave and bring it to Don? what is specifically different about the car now?
