'98 GC Tranny hesitation at 11mph
 

We have a 98 Grand Cherokee with the 6cyl. Auto trans. We have shift
hesitation at about 11mph. We don't see this any other time. It hesitates,
shifts hard and then is fine the rest of the time. Only occurs at low
speeds. HELP

Thank you
James

the throttle valve may be out of adjustment

James Knoll did pass the time by typing:

How long has it been since your last fluid change?

Apart from that I'd suspect the kickdown cable or possibly a TSB
for that tranny. Might want to check, some trannies had a TSB for
shift problems.
