question about uphill driving
I know that 3gs have the hill assist but I am having a problem upon a uphill where my car shudders when accelerating. Is this normal? There are no lights flashing, just shudders only going up a hill.

it only happens when @ full stop going up hill. When accelerating, the car jolts with a hard thud: almost the car is looking for a gear. I checked with a local lexus dealership and they told that its normal for 3gs to have such issue. I am having a hard time believing such where I never had such problem with my other cars before.
