How rough should the shift be from 1-2, 2-3 and 3-4? In the morning I'm afraid of getting whiplash. It's been hot around here so the A/C is running constantly. The shift does get better after he's warmed up a bit. Without the a/c the shift is much smoother, but still noticeable. Another factor is the shift from 3-4. It sometimes feels like a "stutter shift" (for lack of a better term). Kind of like the feel of driving over a couple of concrete seems at about 65 MPH.

One note: the car has 132K on it and didn't have the tranny serviced at 120K like I thought it had (I bought it at 124K). Isn't that service part of the 120K? Would that have anything to do with it?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
