automatic transmission question
I have a G35S auto, and I noticed that when decelerating, the transmission seems to "jerk" when downshifting to 2nd and 1st gears? Also, when I accelerate hard sometimes, it jumps quickly from 2nd to 3rd? I'm confused and am not sure if this is normal. This is without using the DS mode.
Does anyone else have this experience?
Thanks.

I THINK I get that too and...
I try not to use the DS mode too much because most of the time when I shift from 2nd to 3rd, it feels like it shifts wrong. The car KIND of jerks and makes this noise like if the gears weren't perfectly matched and had to rub on each other to match each other. The other gears don't make a sound or anything, just smooth shifts...

Mine does it all the time. It even does the same thing when I go up small hills at low speeds. I took it to the dealership and they told me there is nothing wrong with the car because they hooked it up to the computer and found nothing. IT IS VERY ANNOYING. And with hard acceleration, it does this weird jerk from second to 3rd also. I don't know if its a nissan thing, because my brothers v6 altima does not do that.

I find the last minute shift to first at VERY VERY slow speeds a little more annoying, but it doesn't always do it. If I stop fast without slamming the brakes it does it. If I come to a normal smooth stop I don't feel the downshift 90% of the time. I say it is all normal.
Now the shudder at 40mph, totally different story.
