Apparently I have that mechatronic sleeve leak going on right now but haven't felt any jolt. The only jolt I've felt in the 3.0 was upon releasing the brake, say at a red light just before hitting the gas. A software update fixed it... apparently a recall and they applied a whole fix that I'm sure included other updates at the time (2009).
