Your car has a transmission that has adaptive shift.If your transmission is not damaged due to that leak that you had repaired, you may want to try to clear it's memory and see if the shift has improved.

that's what i did but i have 2 more question, i red if you clear the adaptive transmition memory you have to keep the car running for 10 min a least with out turning the engine off, or the old values will return back , is that true or it's not the case cause i dont think that i drove the car for 10 min after the reset i drove home and turn it off and my home is near the shop.
second how can i know if the transmition is damged...
third i dont know if it's a bad shift or it's normal it's not hard shifting but you can feel the car changing shift is that normal???? i am frustrated

If the transmission is slipping it will throw a code - Code: P2502 = The gear is implausible or the transmission is slipping - and put the car in limp mode to protect it.
Make sure that you have the fluid level correct for the temperature.
When last did the transmission have a service? Fluid & filter change - should be done every 39,000 miles or 60,000 Km.
It might be a good idea to drop the transmission pan & check the filter pickup for wear debris.
