Default Braking "kick"

Well fellas', I had removed the intake manifold on Saturday, replaced some gaskets and put it all back together. Drove it on Sunday and now there is a "kick" coming from the rear when coming almost to a complete stop (example red light) I have triple checked all vacuum lines and wire harnesses. There is slight "in/out movement on the vacuum line that goes into rear of the intake. I am still lost as to how the line is disconnected from intake. Any ideas on the "kick"?

Thank you god-u-ars techs

Rick

To remove the line, push down on the black collar where the line goes in and tghis releases the line as you lift up. On the kick, ide have to say you may be feeling the zf kick or downshift when coming to a stop. This is from transmission adaptation drifting. If you need recall 004 done, and depending on vin this includes a trans reflash and adaptations clear. Give me the last 6 of your vin and i can tell you. Oh, to tell shift into nuetral so the trans wont give this feeling and see if still there. If gone then its the trans, if not something else

Yes youre in range for reflash trans and engines modules. This will clear adaptations so drive it easy afterwards since it will be learning your driving style
