Sounds like a Throttle position sensor adjustment or repair. You should be getting a trans failure light also.

The only way I know how to adjust it on your engine is with a Jaguar PDU diagnostics computer. The TPS is located under the throttle body.

It's possible that the clean out and the new fluid may make the harsher shifts. I personaly like the harsher shifts rather than the smooth ones. Smooth can be a sign of wear. Check a local independent transmission shop and do a line pressure test and maybe they can adjust your shift points to what you want.
