I am experiencing some really harsh downshifts both in auto and manual mode.
Downshifting from 8th till 5th is smooth, anything below is really clunky and violent.
My set-up:
Toyota Aristo with single turbo 2JZ (Maxxecu)
BMW 8hp70 trans
Fully solid drivetrain (so I notice any harsh shifts very fast)
Upshifts are spot on, but when I am slowing down and downshifting, especially from 5 to 2, the gearshifts are extremely harsh and shake the whole car. They are also pretty slow compared to upshifting..
At first I thought the harshness came from the converter being locked but even when unlocked it's the same.
I did an experient while driving in mode P8, 8th gear and coming to a complete stop. While idling I shifted down to 2nd and the shifts were also very slow and clunky.
I have no throttle blips currently, some throttle is easing up the downshifts a little I noticed (at least in the higher gears, not 4/3/2), but it should change gears smooth while idling if blips where to blame

Any one got ideas where to look for? It makes driving the car no fun..
