New guy and first time post. I have a 2016 SHO PP with 28,000 and lately when driving at low speeds after i have been parked seems like i get a hesitation or shudder (very jerky). Mostly happens when going from reverse to drive. I have searched google and have found nothing and decided to come to the experts any help will be much appreciated.

Check drivetrain fluid level and condition first - transmission, ptu, rdu. Next check the torque mount/dogbone for movement when shifting from P to R, and R to D, etc. Then check for play in the driveshaft, maybe the carrier bearings are failing.

I'm having something similar. At low speeds (parking lot speeds) my throttle seems to be a on/off switch. There is no smooth transition. My car is all stock, tune and all.

Year, mileage, and what maintenance done to car?
2013 PP with 96k
Oasis report shows all recommended maintenance performed during its life. I drained the PTU last week and filled with redline lightweight shockproof. As well, I cleaned the TB with seafoam spray and the car is running royal Purple 5w-20 for 1000 miles to cleanout. I have not specifically seen recorded showing trans flush at any time.

I would do the 5 quart in and 5 quart out method on the trans to see if that helps. Our trans do not like dirty fluid.

OE fluid? I don't know why I didn't think of a semi-flush. I added up the cost for a full flush and fill and got gun shy.
