Trransmission jerk

Hey all, I My 01 clk 55 seems to jerk or buck while slowing down at around 7 mph. It only happens when the engine is warm. It does not matter if im braking or the vehicle is slowing down on its own. The car has about 105,000 miles on it.
Thanks

Mine does this too, but it is only if the engine is cold (I assume you did mean to say warm instead of cold right?). I think if it does this when the engine is cold, it is just the CPU downshifting to a lower gear, but I'm not sure why... I guess there is some sort of German engineering answer for this? Good thing is it only does it once and it is predictable, so I'm fairly certain the CPU is doing this on purpose...

transmission service

Have you changed the transmission fluid and filter yet?

I had mine changed at 85k and it was black when it came out. I had similar symptoms like yours and after I had the fluid and filter changed, it drove much better.
