Car jerks in the morning when I put it in reverse
When I start my car in the morning and put in reverse it seems like it takes a second or 2 for gear to enage and I get a slight jerk. It only jerks from park to reverse or from reverse to park. Once fully warmed up it doesnt jerk when you put it in reverse.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Search will review responses. Bottom line, it is NOT normal. Do not let anyone tell your otherwise. Cold or Hot, should not be a jerk. Mine is buttery smooth, but I also recently rebuilt it. Mounts, engine RPM, fluids, solenoid(s), valve body, trans, etc are all culprits.
