| Description of the problem | While backing up a moderately steep gravel driveway in 4 low range i applied the brake and shifted the vehicle from reverse (r) to drive (d) and the engine immediately went to almost full throttle for 2-3 seconds and even though i was pressing on the brake as hard as possible the car lurched forward and hit a bank of snow. This is the only time this has happened so far but i'm very aware now every time i shift. *js |
