Please post screenshots of your media properties, sequence settings, and export settings.

it is all set to 1920x1080

i have found that setting the sequence at 1920x817 recreate the 2,35 format without the need of blak top and bottom bars

but i am not sure this is the best solution

The "standard" is 1920x816.  Never use odd numbers for a final video output.  It has to do with how compression schemes break down the image and how players display it.

 

You can set your Premiere project to it as well.
