Hey all, I am new, so sorry if I mess up the flow.
I have tried searching and I can't find issues that other have had that are like mine.

So I bought a 914 off ebay last week, I got a great deal. The only major issue is that when I start from a stop in first gear, it feels like I am running over a pot hole or a large stick under my rear driver side wheel. It only happens in first, and I can't recreate it in any other gears.

I don't feel any binding up, so I dont think its the CV. And the shifter stays in place, so I dont think its the trans mount.

Has anyone ran into this issue before? If so, what do you think it could be?

Thanks!
