Solution to malfunctions and gear jumps

ZF transmissions referred to Best Motor Works & Sports in Gainesville, Florida where Mikey has extensive background knowledge on ZF transmissions.

He diagnosed the problem to be a loss in pressure in the megatronics solediod. My case happened to be in number (5) of (6) replaced all 6 soledoids, replaced the bushings inside, a rear sensor gasket in the trans that is notorious for leaks with an oil change in both transfer and transmission as indicated every 60,000miles

No more rough 2-3 kick shifts too
Couldn't be happier hope this helps anyone who comes across this as our miles skyrocket!
