Have a 98 model nissan maxima auto drive. The tachometer fluctuates when the car is in drive gear and controlling it with brakes like in traffic jam, it jerks at that very low speed. If i leave car to idle in neutral gear the tachometer remains stable. Atimes when am accelerating at 40mil/hr the car jerks. Ran check and it showed knock sensor. Other than this, it still moves very fast. but am tired of this erratic jerking. it does not jerk all the time. Any clues

The scan says it all.From what you've experienced, it's definitely an electrical fault.

I'll advise you see a specialist, and not just a local mech for fixing.

Engr. Kunle on 08038292296 would be your best bet.
Would love to hear form you after contact with him.

Kind regards.

Vacummn leak causes tach flunctuation at idle, but ignition problem causes jerks.

Check/change spark plugs and wires
check knock sensor
bad fuel also causes knock sensor code to show up.

Do you have the specific code(s)?
The one I have in a villager is P0325
