06 just started shifting crazy

my 06 is shifting hard then shift smooth like it doesn't know what gear to shift into. shifts just don't seem smooth anymore. feels like a shift kit was installed. does the same with a/c on or off load or no load. i did the trans relearn when battery was disconnected at 1000 miles. the truck is stock with 10,000 miles. anybody ever have this problem?
