my NA r32 does alot of wierd things. When the engine is cold and the water temp guage is at its lowest, the car jerks and it gets hard to put the car into gear...but after a few mins when the water temp guage goes up even a tiny bit, the car acts normal...

Also the car would randomly jerk. What happens is im driving normally than the car would just pull back and stop accerlating. After it does this, if i try to go past 2500rpm, the car would jerk violently. When i put it in nuetral, the car would idle at 2000rpm. This might be a problem with my AFM or my gearbox, cause a loud knocking sound is coming from my gearbox where when i accelerate the knocking sound will get louder and when i down gear it would get softer.

anyone have any idea how fix these problems?

Definitely sounds like your AFM needs replacing.

About the 'gearbox' issue, one or both of your tail-shaft cv joints might be buggered, or possibly the centre bearing which is located half way inbetween the tail-shaft might be gone. My tail-shaft had huge amounts of play in it and a knocking sound under acceleration and deceleration. It turned out to be the cv joints AND centre bearing all shat itself.

I ended up getting a custom 1 piece tail-shaft made up to resolve all of those problems.

Tailshaft problem? The car has a welded differantial, does that tell you anything?
