6.2 engine flutter
I have a 2010 GS auto. At speeds over 50mph and upon deceleration the engine flutters or shakes for just a split second. Been doing this for some time, does not seem to get better or worse. Has anyone had the same problem?

I think I know what you're talking about ... sort of a pulsation on deceleration from speed. Mine does it and I was told that it was normal. I can't remember exactly what the cause is, but it seems it has something to do with the transmission, not the engine. Doesn't happen at speeds over 50 though, just on deceleration.

If the trans is locked up at cruse speed in high gear, (actually the torque converter), I'm thinking that just when lifting the throttle, the converter would be de-coupling itself, and getting that slight flutter feeling through the car at that point.

Is this normal-I own a truck and a Ford Edge, they do not do that. Is this just a Vette thing
