Default 2004 Altima Shifts Hard

Hello all:

2004 Nissan Altima 2.5S with 68,500 miles auto trans, no SES light. Lately my wife (primary driver) has been complaining about the car shifting hard. I drove it this weekend and noticed that the car DOES shift properly in ALL gears when cold and other random times. For the most part, when it has been running for a while, you will experience a hard jolting shift from first to second. The experience from second to third is not as intense but still noticeable. The shift from third to fourth is not noticeable at all.

I have done my research and found the following ideas:

1.) Service Bulletin concerning solenoid packs or transmission solenoid replacement? Does this ring a bell? Does someone have a link for more info on this?

2.) Have the car's transmission serviced (flushed/replace new fluid, filter). Make sure its a BG Service? What else do I want to know before having this done?

I would be grateful for any insight you guys could provide...
