I have done less than 1000kms and around 200kms when I got the car the auto gear changes felt nice and smooth and from stop to acceleration first gear felt great like it would hold the gear and rev right out. But now the gear box feels a little clunky like it jolts into gear. Even this afternoon when I was cruising at about 40km's it changed gears and watched the revs drop to 0 then clunked into gear and the revs jolted back up.

Is it just me being paranoid with a new car or is the gear box learning my driving pattern or is the gear box wearing in still?

I spoke with my Nissan dealer and they said they will have a look at it at it's 1000km service, but any advice would be great.

Thanks
Ryan
