When we pull from a stop light or stop sign or while inching along in traffic, the car jerks enough to move our heads. We cannot afford to get it fixed as we just had the manifold replaced, so we are holding off as long as we can. It's getting worse, and more annoying.

For well over a year we have had hard shifting , clunking or banging into gear on this car intermittently. The dealer didn't do anything about it and I ended up taking it to a transmission specialist just today. It wouldn't do it today at all no matter what we did. The guy told me it could be an EPC solenoid.
Any ideas out there?

Hard shift into second. Began about 45 days after purchasing car from dealer. Had my mechanic check for any problems and nothing was wrong with car. Intermitant shifting continued until becoming frequent and car shaking became worse.
Dealer found internal problem and is now waiting for Gm to inspect before repairs can be made. Has anyone else had similar problem at such a low mileage?
