97 1.0 I have a problem with my automatic gearbox - katielam
Hi Everyone,
I need some advice about my R reg Automatic 1.0 micra. I only got it on Sunday. It was fine on the test drive. I have been driving it everyday since I got it, only 4-5 miles a day. I have now noticed that when I slow down and brake or when I am sitting in traffic. The car is making a funny noise and shakes a bit like the noise a car manual car makes just before it's about to stall. If you know what I mean! I'm really worried about it as it's my first car and my knowledge of cars is very limited!

Thanks!

Katie

these gearboxes are either good or bad
can you ask a competant mechanic to have a look/listen for you? most sensible one man bands would look/listen for free
