1992 740 wagon shifting hard

Car will seam to hold onto the last gear and shift hard. If I let off the gas a bit, it will shift sooner.

Any ideas?

Could be the kickdown cable adjustment is off. Take a look at your throttle spool and see which cable goes down the firewall to your tranny. That's the one to adjust.
