usually smooth as ; however I find it sometimes quite clunky at low speeds, around 30kph when backing off, it feels like it rolls & changes up, or locks the torque converter, with a big clunk.
as per our car, the great lemon, its not consistent, just annoying in traffic.
The other thing I don't like about the transmission is that the car rolls down a slope when you stop and take foot off brake. Forward or backward.
Our drive is sloped, so when I select reverse [foot on brake] and remove foot, the car holds for a second or two & then rolls down the hill! Most times the hand brake is on, but if I've moved a bit, then stop , it does it. Cant remember any auto I've had doing this.
