I have a 2006 Mazda 3 2.0 with an Automatic Transmission. I have done all the fluid intervals at 30,000 miles and have babied the care. In the mornings i get a hard upshift 2-3 times until the vehicle is warm in 1st going into 2nd. Other times its random but just feels odd, doesnt feel like a slip but like a hesitation maybe its been doing it since day 1 130,000 miles ago on an off in randomness. Well its gotten worse and the dealer told me I need a transmission I don't beleive it because sometimes it shifts perfectly..... Help lol

If your getting hard shifts then you need to start by doing a transmission pressure test.Most hard shifts are caused by too high of line pressure.Also do you have any code's?
