hello hello,
I'm sure this isn't a terribly serious problem, but I have an average knowledge of cars and I can't quite figure this out.
Here's the scenario: I'm about to make a stop. I've coasted and used the break to charge the battery. I drive a manual transmission, so once the the charge indicator drops off, I shift into neutral and come to a stop. Here's the thing, once the auto-stop shuts the engine off, when I let go of the brake (if I'm on a street with no incline of course :wink: ), my Insight seems to give a bit of a shudder... the shudder is actually more noticealbe, rougher I guess you'd say, than when the engine comes back on when I shift into first gear. So yeah, um, in my quest to learn as much as I can about my Insight, anyone tell me what's going on here?
Thanks in advance,
H
