2000 Ford Mustang Convertible Chugging - Drive Train & Driveline
Question: I believe it is the drive train that is responsible for the "chugging" effect. Here's what happens: After driving the car for a few minutes, the vehicle begins to "chug" or shake but only at speeds below 45mph. At 60mph it drives fine. I can minimize chugging by letting off of the accelerator, which drops it down a gear (I have an automatic transmission). Could it be my transmission?

Technican: DOes it chug when you are trying to maintain a steady speed or only when accelerating?
It could be a transmission concern, this does not necessarily mean the transmission needs replacement.
Does the check engine light come at any time while the engine is running?
Owner: It chugs when accelerating
Technican: The first thing you should do is visit Autozone or Advance auto and have them check for stored AND pending troublecodes, a free service they provide. This will let us know if the PCM (computer) is noticing anything unusual.
