Hi, Is a transmission jerk at low revs when shifting up 1st to 2nd and down 2nd to first normal or a sign for a failing DCT. This is in sport not race mode. I experienced this during a test drive of a 2011 458 with 40k plus miles. Thank you!
You might want to post this in the 458 subforum: https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/forums/458-italia-488-f8.204/ Or, perhaps a moderator can move this post for you.
100 percent not normal … doesn’t sound like the typical DCT failure — warning light or loss of odd or even gears (sensor going bad), or fluid leaking from the weep hole when running (seal failure) — that sounds like a mechanical issue. You can manually downshift from 2nd to 1st rolling up to a stop sign and not feel a thing even in race mode.
