Help me with my 3800 series v6 engine!re3rocks 08-27-2005, 01:27 PM ok when i drive, if i push down the gas pedal any more than a lttle than half of a quarter way down, i hear this like, grinding and the car gets all shaky and i can feel the grinding too. but when i dont use the gas much, and just push it a little, it works just fine. it tells me SES, but when i push it only a little, it goes away after a while. then itll come back if i try to push it down more again. wtf? is it the transmission? crasher88 08-27-2005, 07:58 PM what year is the car, since its a 3.8 I'm pretty sure its a 96 or newer so that means obd-2. Take is to autozone and get it scanned and see what codes are stored in the computer.

If it is a missfire just do a simple tune up. Plugs and wires and see if that helps any. | ||
