Default Transmission problem???

I just noticed today a slight pause in 2nd gear today right before 2,000 rpms. It is almost like a miss or something…what is the problem?? Anyone notice this?

Manual Mode / Auto Mode? Shifting into 2nd or while in 2nd gear. In manual mode I don't think the torque converter locks up until you are in 2nd gear, I notice this quite often.

It happens when the car is warm (3 bars) in Manual Mode while in 2 gear. It dosent happen when I shift, but while Im going through the rpm range.
