check the oil in the gearbox it could be tired or the filter might need replacing as stated by Fanatic.

Being a V8, sounds more like the engine misfiring to me, not the autobox

What makes you think it's the gearbox? Could be a number of reasons for it to feel sluggish, and gearbox wouldn't be high on the list.
