ummm
doesnt sound common....check up on it
ur engine mounts may be loose
but once question...why did u put the brakes on and hit the throttle to begin with in the first place?

I think what he's referring to is the Autobox and the way you drive it. You know, to stop, press the brake , then lift off and onto the accelerator to move forward. wording got me confused a bit as well but I got it in the end. I don't think he'll be dumb enough to press both at the same time.

yeah thats what i was thinkin. why would u press at the same time? lol
hmm if ur referring to the autobox, it def. should NOT jump out like that.
what do u mean by "thumping"?
