Toyota Camry transmission Problem

I recently bought a 2013 petrol variant Camry. Initially, I felt a slight vibration in the floor pedal area while accelerating, which I ignored. However, it has now escalated to a strong jerk when shifting from 2nd to 3rd gear at low acceleration.
My mechanic flushed the transmission fluid, reducing the vibration but not the jerk. They suggested an expensive transmission swap from a wreck yard. Im looking for alternate solutions to address this issue. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

It seems like this particular car model has a well-known issue. To address the problem, you should consider replacing the torque converter with a new o r rebuilt one.

Additionally, make sure to clean and upgrade the valve body. When reassembling, dont forget to install extra magnets in the sump pan and use fresh WS ATF.

Its crucial to ask Toyota to update the ECU with the latest U760E automatic transmission shift sequence to ensure the best results.

Its advisable to find a mechanic who is experienced in working with automatic transmissions. Lastly, make sure the ATF cooler is pulse flushed o r cleaned with the correct cooler cleaner, which is not plain petrol.
