Harsh start V70-XC70 1998

Hi all,

I've noticed that when my wife's V70 T5 automatic starts, it catches quickly (1 or 2 turns), but that it jerks quite violently when it does. You can feel this "jerk" through the steering wheel. It's just one single jerk as the engire fires - after that it's silky smooth. Is this something that "they all do", or is the possibly a problem? I recently replaced the upper and lower engine torque arm bushings and the right side rubber engine mount. I never noticed this until recently, but that doesn't mean it wasn't always like this. Thanks in advance for any comments and advice.

-Daire
