When I was new to my Protege5 I was always complaining about how it shuttered on starts. I thought it was the car (naive or what!), but now its quite smooth. I have heard a lot of other protege owners (young people) complain about it too.
I'm reminded of the classic VW Bug 4-speed advertisement: "After a while, it becomes Automatic"
