Every day, when my truck is cold, it hesitates, then lurches slightly when it shifts into 2nd for the first time...
after that, it shifts normally and smoothly.
any thoughts?
Mine does the same thing, some days more violent then the others. It is super annoying and uncomfortable. Not really sure what causes it but it is concerning how hard it does it some days.
Do you allow the engine to warm up before shifting?

what would you define as warm up? its been mid to upper 70s lately. i start truck up, wait for tach to come down and i go. i dont like to idle any longer than i need to.
I should’ve read your reply completely but yes sounds like your doing it right for warming it up. You’d be surprised at how many ppl hit the key and the shifter all in one fluid motion.

i dont think it has to do with temp either.
I don’t have this problem after the motor warms up. While the motor is warming so is the transmission
