306 XSi Auto transmission change thumps !!!!!

    We have owned a '99 306XSi since new and have had a consistent auto gear
    change "thump" when the 306 starts to accelerate from a strationary
    position.

    Peugeot help has been to acknowledge the "problem" and have replaced the
    auto's main control unit, they have tried different oils, have
    reprogrammed the computer several times - all to no avail.

    We are worried this could become serious over time.

    Do others have a similar experience; or are we a one-off?
    Is there a known cure to eliminate the gear change thump? (apart from
    selling the car !!!!!)

    Hope you can help.
    Andrew.

    Sorry, I can't help you. But I am curious if Peugeot replaced the main
    control (Computer?)and looked for a solution at no cost? Or did it all
    happen in the one-year guarantee period? And you are still driving this car
    with its shortcomings?
