Well my car seems to be jerking slightly just after I start up my car. It does so when I speed up and when I'm at a steady pace. After about 8-10 minutes of driving, it goes away....

I was told that I need to warm up the car before I start driving, but I do... and the ride still continues to jerk right after I start up.

Any ideas/help, guys?

how high are you going in revs 3K? just because the engine temp is slightly up doesn't mean the oil is warm (most likly it will still be cold)

maybe dirty spark plugs?

yeah just before 3k it starts up... well i idle for about 8-10 minutes before start up... temp on cluster goes up to about a quarter.
