Thanks for the advice. It sounds like something they fixed in 2002. My sense is that the transmission or engine mounts are not up to all that torque in low gears. There is no turbo lag that I can feel. My main concern is durability, since I feel that I am forcing it into gear every time in 1-2 and 2-3 shifts. On the highway the 3-4 shift is another story - it works great.
Mowever, I can't help but be a bit disappointed. Of the many cars I have owned over the years (including a 1977 Saab 99) this is the only one where the transmission bothered me day to day. An unfortunate flaw in an otherwise very good car.
