In researching, I have found that many have solved the trans issues by changing the fluid to Motul or Pentosin.

Also many reports of both trans and diff fluids being very dirty and full of metal, with reccomendations of changing fluids ASAP.

My trans kind of "mini-chunks" into 2nd and 3rd gears with no consistency. Some shifts are smooth, other nick into gear.

My car's going in for major surgery, turbo kit, radiator/oil cooler, clutch, and the fluids will be changed out as well.

I'll report if i find any improvements. I expect the trans to feel much better.
