530E ZF8 issues - transmission jerky only 60.000km

I am facing issue with my 2018 transmission

Its noticeable shifting when slowing down/accelerating. There is also a jerk in the 2th gear, when accelerating from 10 km/t there is a slight ' jump ' that can be annoying aswell.



The problem is the same regardless of drive mode ( sport - eco ) and is there on electrical mode and gas mode. auto H is off, i have reset adaptions and scanned for faults.

Update 16.12.2023

So I performed a fluid change zf fluid change kit - oil pan, plug and 7L fluid.



I followed a youtube video and did exactly what is recommended. Got about 6.5 out and 6.5L back in. Filled at 40-50C. Waited for fluid to start dripping out to stop fill with engine on.



it was shifting weird prior to fluid exchange but now its worse and in every gear.
long story short, the car stays in gears longer than neccesary and u feel every shift. especcially in lower gears.

i reset my transmission adaptations, used carly for this. No error codes checked for error codes and so far there are none.



Would i get error codes if something was off? Any ideas?
