| RE: What speed should 1-2 upshift occur? i kinda noticed that with my old benz. 67 250se coupe. i never feel 1st on the start. the kick from 2nd to 3rd is hard sometimes, at times it a smooth transition, at others it kick hard, jerks even. from 3rd to 4th is always smooth. downshift is smooth. i ran a super lube thru it, z-max. it accually helped smooth it out some after i changed the trans oil a couple times and kept the z-max up. car was parked for a number of years before i got my hands on it, so i did all that to clean it up. my shift point is at 2300-2500rpm. up hill is a struggle for me unless i hit it in 3rd.
