My '04 CV LX Sport had this problem - the EGR valve module (there is a differential pressure switch built in) replacement fixed it.

If you know the EGR valve needs replacing by all means do that before you just start throwing parts at it!!:cool:

Sounds like the infamous torque converter clutch shudder.

Try this test next time it happens:

Hold your foot steady on the gas and use your left foot to GENTLY touch the brake pedal, just enough to turn on the brake lights. If the shuddering stops, then what I said above. Change the transmission fluid and you should be good. Use Mercon V ONLY...no miracle-in-a-bottle that claims to "convert" the fluid.
