In automatic gearboxes, jerking and delayed shifts are often caused by worn oil or the need for an adaptation. In manuals, gears that are hard to engage and judder when pulling away usually point to the clutch or dual-mass flywheel.
The fault can get worse and more expensive. Drive carefully and book a diagnosis.

We read the gearbox control unit fault codes and data and check the oil. In automatics we change the oil with the filter and perform an adaptation; in manuals we diagnose the clutch and dual-mass flywheel.
This is guidance only, not a diagnosis. We’ll find the exact cause at our workshop in Bielany — you approve the quote before any work starts.
Yes — even if the manufacturer says “filled for life”, fresh oil significantly extends the gearbox’s life. Usually every 60–80 thousand km.
Calibrating the control unit after a service or repair so that gear changes are smooth. We do it with a diagnostic computer.
The clutch bites high, revs rise without the car accelerating, there’s a burning smell or the car judders when pulling away.
