Smile 260E abrupt shifting to 3rd... help

Hi All,

When accelerating moderately, my car seems to shift early and abruptly from 2nd to 3rd. It does not do it all the time, let's say every 4-5 stop and accelerate cycle. I'm wondering if fluid is too low/high, bowden cable needs lube, fluid needs to be replaced, etc... The fluid level by the way is right on and the color is still clear (changed 30k ago)... Please advise...

thanks,

sjsfiji
