Rough o r delayed shifting can be due to low o r contaminated transmission fluid, worn shift solenoids, o r faulty sensors like the throttle position sensor o r transmission control module issues. In some cases, mechanical wear in the valve body o r clutch components can cause harsh shifts. Hot climate conditions in Pakistan can cause transmission fluid to break down faster, affecting shift quality. Timely fluid replacement and diagnostic checks can help identify and resolve the problem.
