Was wondering if anyone knew why the transmission would start shifting hard. The car has over 200 k miles, but runs great. It just recently started shifting hard.

If a transmission code is set, the code may force the PCM to run with FULL LINE pressure, causing harsh shifts....

Check for codes....

Check fluid level and condition.....

Last transmission service?
