To protect your vehicle's transmission from damage caused by engine braking, you can use lower gears when going downhill instead of relying solely on engine braking. This helps reduce the strain on the transmission and prevents overheating. Additionally, avoid prolonged periods of engine braking and consider using a transmission cooler for added protection. Regular maintenance and fluid checks are also important to ensure the transmission is in good condition.
Sounds like you have two separate problems, on acceleration the transmission could be slipping, check the fluid level and have a mechanic look at it. During braking, it is most likely warped rotors, which will need to be replaced to stop the shuddering. As long as the pads and shoes are in good repair, the shuddering during braking will not harm anything aside from it being annoying. The transmission can suffer serious irreplaceable damage if it is not checked out immediately.
Braking in a moving vehicle is applying the brakes to slow or halt movement, usually by depressing a pedal. The braking distance is the distance between the time the brakes are applied and the time the vehicle comes to a complete stop.
Under the transmission oil reservoir, across from the oil drain plug and on the braking side of the bike. (from bottom of the bike the transmission drain plug will always be on the braking side of the bike. The oil drain plug on the shifting side.)
Braking distance refers to the distance a vehicle will travel from the point when its brakes are fully applied to when it comes to a complete stop.
The master cylinder in a 2002 Pontiac Grand Am is a crucial component of the vehicle's braking system, responsible for converting the force applied to the brake pedal into hydraulic pressure. This pressure is then transmitted to the brake calipers or wheel cylinders, allowing for effective braking. If you're experiencing brake issues, checking the master cylinder for leaks, fluid levels, or signs of wear is essential, as a malfunctioning master cylinder can lead to reduced braking performance or complete brake failure. Regular maintenance and timely replacements can help ensure the safety and reliability of the braking system.
If a car jerks forward while in the break position it is not the Automatic Break System but rather the transmission.
Speeding does affect braking distance. The faster a vehicle is traveling, the longer it will take to come to a complete stop because there is more kinetic energy that needs to be dissipated through braking. This means that speeding can increase the risk of accidents due to longer braking distances.
The brake pressure regulation valve is designed to manage and control the hydraulic pressure within a vehicle's braking system. Its primary purpose is to ensure that the brake pressure is distributed evenly between the front and rear brakes, preventing skidding and enhancing vehicle stability during braking. By regulating pressure, it also helps to prevent brake lock-up, particularly in conditions where traction is compromised. This ultimately contributes to safer braking performance and improved vehicle control.
There is a "proportioning valve" that relieves some pressure during heavy braking.

if it is automatic then this would be caused by shift down is not working in transmission
