The first "shift" of the day.....

Wondering if anyone else has this experience with their X.

When I start the car-up in the morning and head out of my driveway (reverse) and start down my street (usually forward - lol) ) - I notice that the first "shift" from 1-2 seems a bit abrupt and very unsophisticated for a BMW.

This behavior doesn't last long (1 or 2 shifts at most) and seems to be a little more abrupt in very cold weather. This isn't new behavior - I've noticed it for quite a while now. Maybe since I bought it two years ago.

Outside of that the trans shifts very smooth under all other driving conditions.

I've never checked my trans fluid level - I probably should. Anyone else have something similar on theirs?

Thanks.
