I'm having problems with my 2012 Mazda 3, automatic transmission is shuddering or slipping
When I take off from lights it gets to where it should change but it just hangs there for a second or two before shifting. At low speed it shudders.
My dad thinks its because every morning I reverse out, I don't let it stop I just put it into drive and take off while still rolling a little bit backwards.
If this is true (unlikely) how would I fix it?

found the problem.

Shut up, I drive in heavy traffic, I want to relax not be working the clutch like an old steamtrain captain.

I do that too. Longest car I've probably been doing on would be about 5 years. So far so good tho.

It is true you fucking mongoloid. You drive one of the most simplest transmissions and you manage to fuck it up.
But I also don't just shift all of a sudden. I brake just short of stopping and shift.

Congratulations, you've fucked your torque converter which has in turn fucked the rest of your transmission.
Shouldn't it still be under warranty?

simple as in simple to drive

No, not under warranty as I didn't stick with the dealer servicing and just got the oil changes done at a local place and nothing else.

>2012 Mazda 3 has the same tranny is the lemon transmission Ford focus of that year.
Fuck. You and your parents are retarded. Buy a fucking manual pussy

What do you mean?

A Mazda 3 is a Ford Focus rebadged.
They teamed up with each other for awhile.
Research the tranny problems in the 2011-2013 focuses
My brother claimed lemon law on a 13' focus. Got paid out

You believed that? Of course it's under warranty, as long as you've got records for the work.

Should I admit that I do that when reversing?
