    Hi all,

    I recently got into my new 2007 F430 and began to shift from 2nd to 3rd gear and felt a bucking feeling as I shifted. Is that normal or maybe something else is going on.

    It was in sport mode!

    Thanks

    How high were the RPMs between shifts?

    Ive only driven one on a test drive. I felt the same thing when shifting at low rpm.

    It surely needs a cable adjustment, around 2 hours of labor.
    Plus, a gearbox oil replacement (4 liters of oil) is necessary also.
    Just did that 2 operations on our 6-speed F430 and it really transformed the car, a completely different animal and much better shifting !
