Is the cold engine idle speed higher than normal? If the engine cold idle
speed is normal, then an abnormal jolting sensation can be caused by a
broken or worn engine or transmission mount or a transmission problem. If
the transmission fluid has never been changed as a part of a preventative
maintenance procedure, then I would start with that. Make sure that the
correct transmission fluid is used.
