Feeling a little shock when start moving at light

[MoonRiver]

Only got 186 miles on it and have been driving with one pedal. I start noticing when I press the accelerator from a dead stop at light I feel there is a slight shock in the rear bottom. Same feeling as I let go the clutch too soon in a Stick shift but the shock is from the back, or like the upshifting in an auto tranny. Auto hold is off and parking brake not applied. Not step on the accelerator hard at all.
Has anyone else experienced it?

I feel there is a slight shock in the rear bottom.

Now that I’ve read this a few times, I’m pretty sure you didn’t mean that you are getting an electrical shock in your ass, right? That could be really bad.

that's a good one. You know I meant it's power train didn't you?

I had to read it a few times to be sure.

If you‘re using 1PD, the brake is likely holding you when you’re stopped. If so, it may be the release of the brake you‘re feeling.

With only 186 miles it could just be new brake pads as well. They get a little sticky until you wear them in. Drive it with 1-pedal off for a few dozen miles and get some good braking in. See if that resolves it.

Thanks for the idea. That makes sense. Will turn off one pedal to see it helps. Will report back in a while since I don’t need to drive it for a couple of months.

You can overcome the shock or bump you are experiencing by slowly feathering the accelerator pedal from a standstill at the stop light when in 1 pedal mode. My car does the same thing. I just give it a little pedal to get it rolling, and then it is smooth acceleration, instead of the slight bumping feeling when it overcomes the braking.

Yeah this is just physics from instant torque
