SST gear shift shock problem

I start to move, the transmission shift the gear 1 to gear 2, the car will shock, not every time, but easy to happen.

If I launch my car very gentle or very fierce, it will be ok, do not have any shock.
If I want to launch it a little bit fast but not to much fierce, it easily happens the shock when the gear 1 shift to gear 2. (Hope you guys can understand my description )

Anybody have the same situation or know the problem? Do I need to worry about my transmission?

No, take out the castrol and put in OEM fluid. There have been many reports of problems on anything but OEM.

Also look up "teach-in" for your transmission. It should help a lot.

This must be new, I haven't seen this bottle before. Everything I've seen is a Gallon container labelled with just dia Queen sstf1.

Mitsu Diaqueen SSTF-1 is made by Castrol and sold to dealers outside the U.S. as BOT341. Ravenol J1D2111 DCT/DSG is claimed to be fully compatible as well. Link to Ravenol - https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QHF2PBE...MEP1FFAZ&psc=1
