It shifts rough from 1st to 2nd gear, especially if I press gas pedal hard. If I press the gas pedal softly, it shifts smoothly.

Occasionally, I tow a camping trailer with this van. The transmission rough shift happens with or without the camper in tow.

Hello, inside the transmission there is a accumulator spring that can break and cause a hard shift, the servo cover needs to be remove and the spring inspected. Please let me know how is goes
