Default XJ6/300 Steering Wheel Jerk/Shake from 1st to 2nd gear.....

hello everyone, I have been experiencing this problem for a while now, what happeneds is this.... When I am at a stop light or the car as come to a complete stop, as I begin to accelerate I notice a cluck, jerk or shake to the steering wheel. Sometimes its not a violent as other times, but it only does it when the car is entering 2nd gear. I have gotten new engine mounts didnt help, tranny flush and kit, didnt help, oil change, didnt help, nothing seems to help. Does anyone know of anything... thank you.

I had a similiar problem but rather while turning versus accelerating. Took the wheels off and found on the right side one of the idler arms (I think that is what they are called) came off of the bushing. Popped it back in and everything was OK.

Your problem could be anything, start going through the whole suspension and see what you find.
