So all these brand new C32's back in 2001 that where having the 1500rpm jerk was not considered normal and could have been repaired by replacing the brand new solenoid with another brand new solenoid.

Maybe the original poster had another issue but a light hesitation or jerk around 1500rpm in 1st gear is normal for these cars and you can spend your lifetime trying to fix it if you like.

Not sure what you are trying to say but I think your trying to be sarcastic , people say on this forum that the "1500 rpm jerk" is a characteristic to these cars " it's not they are not working properly I know this as I have fixed it and know drives like its supposed to

Didnt the Eurocharged TCU tune rid the jerk?
I recall quizing about it when the TCU was released.

It seems to have but it caused a bigger issue I am still working on. May need to go back to the stock TCU tune so I am not advertising this as a fix.

Yes, that is the only reason why I havent shipped my TCU . I have a TCU tune on credit in replacement for a failed eurotuner that I bought last year.
