neutral  Anders Ericsson: litterally it would be "rear arse", as "arsle" is somewhat vulgar. I wonder if it should not be "bak i arslet" rather then "i bakarslet", cause "bakarslet" sounds a bit contrived.

Explanation:
trycker till i bakarslet could mean for instance if you push down the accelerator to the floor, you get a reaction (a jerk) from the rear end of the vehicle
