E4OD- shaking after shifting

Hello from Germany.
I have a problem with my transmission and can not find the problem.
The transmission shifts smooth, but then directly after the shift, there is a shaking like a vibration for a little time. (You can feel it best ca. 50miles/h).
If I press the speed panel a little more it directly appears, ohterwise it takes some time to disapear itself.
The same thing I get, if the car changes from no load operation to speed up, and ther is not changing a gear.
I think it is something wtih the transfer of the torque.

I checked the oil, it looks fine, almost clear like water.-> no burnings
I checked all the harnesses, nothing to see all fine.
I checked the cardan and cardan joints, all is tight.

Any suggestions, what it is? I have no ideas left.

Thanks for the answers

On a guess, I would say torque converter shudder. The converter is a semi weak spot in the e4od. It is not really weak, but seems like one of the first parts to wear out.
Search "e4od converter" and see if it matches your symptoms.

Hello yorska,
thanks for the hint.
I found a discription of a liquid and filled it in my tranny.
Now it works fine, now shaking left.
Thank you for helping.
