Quick question - is there any shift adjustment on 850 trannies?

What I mean is there an adjustment to "soften" or "harden" the shifting?

For example, on my 240 I can soften (slow down) or harden (quicken) the shifting by adjusting the kickdown cable. My 850 seems to shift harder than my 240. Or maybe it is just the nature of the beast as most 850's seem to shift hard - especially going into second.

BTW - The tranny fluid is very clean.


Thanks,
Jim
