Hi!

A few weeks ago the gear fluid was changed and new filter. Converter was drilled.
Fluid level checked by the right temp.

The car has a hard/unnormal/slow/irritating shift between the first and second gear.
No problem in the other from 2. to 7. or backwards from 7. to 1. Maybe a little from 2. to 1. - I'm not sure.

Fluid is Fuchs Titan 4134 with 236.14 specs.

Gearbox is resat. (Key just before engine start. Speeder down 10-15 sec. Key back to off. Wait 2-3 min. Key out.)

What could the problem be? Please describe.

Could it be a shift pressure regulating solenoid valve ?

or the value body needs cleaning ?

Car has droven 327.000 km.
New converter at 168.000 km / gearbox repaired (722.9).
