[QUOTE="Anybodyhome, post: 440105, member: 19161"] I saw the thread title "Driving Issues" and also looked to see you're in NJ. In my humble opinion and experience, a lot of people in NJ have driving issues. Seriously, though, it does sound as though you've got a brake/ brake pad issue. I think putting it in reverse is kicking the pad and caliper back out of the way a fraction of an inch (we're not talking big tolerances here) and allows you to go forward. But the first time you use the brakes, it goes right back to the condition you describe, correct? Also, are you only noticing it when going from 1st to 2nd gear, because that could be having almost the same effect as putting it in reverse- the shift and rpm change at the wheel is kicking the brake/ brake pad loose, therefore you don't feel it through the rest of the gears.
