A forward jerk is felt when i start my Cadillac Deville

[aalok]

i am feeling a slight jerk when taking off. when i start my car (dose not matter any time of the day) i feel a slight forward motion in the car. what is this indicating. Has anybody ever experienced this problem?

It is possible that it is the spring. Try to find a perfectly flat ground then check if one side is sagging. If it is try replacing the strut and springs.

Thanks cadyart, some were pointing to engine mounting and now you sounding that suspension might be kaput.

Will check as per ur advise and see if any side is sagging.

Thanks man, which cadyy u drive btw?

Welcome Aalok. I have a Seville STS and it has been a fine ride for me ever since I got her. Tell me when you have done the simple test and what you found out.
