112K 2007 Honda Fit Base Jolts at Stop Lights
I absolutely love this car, except for a couple things.
Does anyone else who has this same car have an issue with the car jolting intermittently? Of course, it's much more noticeable when you are at a stop light. It's enough random jolt, despite your foot on the brake, that my friend noticed it while stopped next to my car. You can feel it in the background when the car is in drive at a normal 35mph, but less intense.
It appears to have some correlation with the AC on or perhaps the stereo up loud, though, I can no longer tell if thats just me.
One mechanic shop suggested I burn up as much fuel in the tank and fill up with Supreme from BP. I did notice a significant difference in the first tank meaning it would not jolt at all, but that only lasted for the initial tank.
I'm taking this to the autopark honda and will post the response I get. Aside from this particular issue, the car is in very good working order and recently had a 30K servicing.
If anyone else has the same symptoms please let me know if any of your steps resolved the issue.
Thanks in Advance!
