Hey im new here but not new to cars (previous car was an 02 wrx also have a 73 Charger) first things first, I know I have a bad pinion bearing in the front left. The car was bought from a dealer a week ago with 130000 miles on the 1.8t Quattro 5 speed. The car was dealer maintaned. Looked at the carfax and the turbo was replaced along with all oil lines and intercooler Now my things is besides the bearing when im driving and going through 1-2 no matter how fast im going or what the rpms are at or how fast I shift the car jerks and it feels if the shifter is trying to pull its self out. It occasionally happens if I go 2-3 too but not 1st to directly 3rd any thoughts? Thanks in advanced
