Hi, hope someone can help..
I have a '95 328 with 5 speed auto transmission.. Done about 108,000 miles.
Recently on a long journey noticed that the gear change from 4th to 3rd was very 'fierce'. Jerky rather than smooth.
I dont know how to describe better, but all changes are usually very smooth, except for this occasion.
It happened several times every time changing down, but has not happened since. I can only guess this was after a fairly long journey with everything hot. I have not noticed anything unusual on recent short trips.
Any help/advice appreciated.
