The present study is concerned with the numerical solution, using finite difference method of a one-dimensional initial-boundary value problem for a quasilinear Sobolev or pseudo-parabolic equation with initial jump. We have derived a method based on using finite elements with piecewise linear functions in space and with exponential functions in time and appropriate quadrature formulae with remainder term in integral form. In the initial layer, we introduce a special non-uniform mesh which is constructed by using estimates of derivatives of the exact solution and the analysis of the local truncation error. For the time integration we use the implicit rule. The fully discrete scheme is shown to be convergent of order 2 in space and of order one in time, uniformly in the singular perturbation parameter. Numerical results supporting the theory are presented.
