AT - shift from 1-2? - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I recently had my tranny fluid changed thanks to @Neal@EQtuning and it shifted smoother, however when its cold it does give a little jerk in the lower gears.

It does mine when its cold. I changed mine out about 15k miles ago, but probably needs to be changed again. I do have a tranny cooler, and by reading some posts regarding AT fluid temps, I highly recommend getting one if you want to keep your tranny for a while.

x2 on jerky when cold. Doesn't do it once warm.

Mine isn't necessarily a rough shift but after I shift from 1st to 2nd I can usually count to 2 or 3 and the car lurches like it wants take off and go. It only does this once I have shifted and I'm off the gas. Don't know if this is the same issue but this doesn't happen consistently. Anyone else experiencing this?

Someone mentioned trans coolers. I installed the Mishimoto fan cooled tranny cooler on my automatic. Inline after the stock cooler. It really made a difference. Always stays below 230 degrees on the track now.
