My transmission is shifting hard going into 3rd gear sometime it will shift smooth and sometime hard any suggest what may be the problem?

I was thinking taking to the dealership for a transmission service fluid and filter change to see if that help.

2005 Dodge Durango 3.7 119,258 miles .

Another question this model have a kick-down or tv cable where you can adjust you shift point as the preview model? Thank

i am NOT a trans expert. but how a trans releases one gear can effect going in to the next. try and check out the 2 gear band adjustment. i think it can be done on the out side. i have found that if the valve body has been modded the adjustment is not same as stock. on stock set up you might try a little tighter band setting. but ask an expert how far to test out.
