On acceleration after 40 mph my Dodge Journey shutters

Shudder is usually a transmission concern with the torque converter. 40 MPH indicates a range in which the tcm engages torque converter lock up, and most shudder concerns happen at this time. Need a scan tool to be exact. Obviously could be another concern. Without driving I would not know. If it is a shudder, in my experience a complete transmission service with filter and friction modifier will usually remedy the concern in the short term... however... complete rebuild is not usually far off in the future. I have seen other internal transmission issues following this about 20 to 30,000 miles after fixing the shudder

2000 echo shuttering when you accelerate

Sounds like an engine misfire.Does the check engine light come on or flash. If so, it may be a spark plug or ignition coil issue. The transmission can also cause a shudder problem. These transmissions are usually rather dependable though.

Transmission shutters when accelerating from a full stop

as long as the trans does not slip while shifting gears, you may need a torque convertor. you may be able to minimize the shudder by changing the fluid and filter, but that may open a can of worms causing the trans to go bad.

Automatic shudders on some gear changes.

This car has both options of auto transmission plus manual gear **** so the only reason it can shudder when the clutch is not fully released and thus takes some time, that's when it shudders, but on accelerating this will not happen cos the centripetal clutch has enough torque such that the clutch is pressed hard to the cam & therefore no shuddering. On cruising speed the probability of clutch slipping making the car shudder. Thus changing the clutch assembly ought eliminate this problem....sodeep

Clunky Vibration or Shutter

I'd shudder too at 260,000 miles. . By shudder, do you mean vibration?. U-joints usually show up at around 45 mph. So try to narrow it down.

Transmission shudder

I had a similar problem on my 93 Accord after I accidentally threw the car in reverse at 50 mph, obviously wrecking the transmission. When I got it rebuilt I was told the transmission pump was to blame (clogged with "shrapnel"). I, and your car manual, recommend taking the car in to get the tranny looked at. Especially considering you just had the fluid changed which is what would normally cause the problems you are describing.
