1996 Maxima O.D. Problem

My 1996 Maxima make a series of quick slips, or what I would call a "judder" when it shifts into overdrive. It also seems to jerk and shift hard when it downshifts out of overdrive. Is this just a sticky solenoid or some bigger problem? If it is the solenoid, is there anything I can do to clean or lube it so that it shifts smoother or does it need to be replaced? Is this a DIY project?

If you haven't changed the ATF for a awhile, that would be the first step. My '96 has gotten this problem twice and both times it was asking for fresh fluid. As soon as it was changed, the problem went away.
