i have a w reg rover 75 automatic with only 15000 miles on it over the last few weeks it has started to jerk violently when it changes gear and now does it practicaly every time and its getin worse, so much that the whole engine rocks back and forth when it jerks. i have also noticed that i seem to have alot of pressure coming out of the oil filler cap when its removed whilst the car is running the sound of the car changes and when u hold your hand over it you can feel it blowing quite alot. as the mileage is so low i am puzled to what it can be can you please give me some advice .thanks

have a garage check the PCV valve (positive crankcase ventilation) ... the auto shifting issue will need to be looked at by a transmission repair centre
