Hard 2-3 shift

When I'm at WOT(flooring) in automatic mode(D5,D4) the 2-3 gear shift seems like the car pulls back a tiny bit really quick and shifts hard. In SS mode it doesn't do this. Anyone experience this same predicament?

thats weird doo, it does just the opposite in my car

...it seems like the shift from 1-2 and 2-3 is a lot meaner with a hint of a little kick...Shyne

Doersn't sound good.

Mine shifts hard 2-3 only when cold, but it doesn't matter if its at WOT or not, it happens at any RPM. Once she's warmed up a bit it doesn't happen, usually just the first time she shifts 2-3.
