Why does 2000 daewoo lanos sometime kick hard when shifting on its own happens after been driving awhile shifts but just kicks really hard when doing it turn car off and it doesnt happen again?

Answer 1

I am not an expert but had the same problems. Even though they say that they are not conected. Check the level of your power steering fluid, it takes Transmission Fluid not Power Steering. I had a leak in my powersteering hose and would have to constanly refill it, when ever it became low the car would then start shifting hard every now and then. I lost the cap to the powersteering which caused air to get into the lines and again started having hard shifting. After fixing the hose and getting another cap I haven't had a problem since. Like I said I have been told that the two lines are not connected but the problems stopped when I quit getting air in the lines through the lack of cap and through the leaky hose.
