This seems to be a clogged filter in trans. Only to be serviced by a transmission repairman or local oil change shop . Beware of some discount trans. Shops , remember they are in the Business ......
Are you sure you put the correct amount in? Sounds like when it's cold the fluid settles on the bottom. But when it warms up, the fluid starts to travel and not be enough to lube and cool the gears. Check you owners manual or compare what you took out with the amount you put in.
Most likely in this severe weather the fluid and the bands in the transmission need time to circulate and warm up. It is a good idea in severe weather to allow a vehicle to warm up for at least 4 - 6 minutes before driving it. Remember that oils and lubricants get very thick in cold weather.
Could be a worn synchromesh on the second gear.
Maybe if you practice double de-clutching it will delay the necessary strip-down. The other technique is to monitor the revs during change up to see what the optimum engine speed is for a good silent gear change
you need a transmission fluid and filter changed.because if filter stopped up.transmission fluid little thicker in cold climate make it hard circulate through filter.when engine and fluid get warmer fluid get thinner where it can circulate through filter cause transmission to shift correctly.
i hate to be the bearer of bad news but you need a transmission, as the transmission heats up you are loosing pump pressure this is caused by to much wear in thetransmission. it usely starts with delayed or erratic shifting that keeps getting a little worse over time then one day the wear goes past the maximum limit and the transmission fails......SORRY
You need to have the transmission flushed and have new fluid put in. As oil warms up, especially old oil. It loses viscosity and will not lubricate the gears as it should.
I was told to change my Transmission Control Module,located on the transmission . You can get it new for under $200 but, I was advised to get it from a junk yard it's alot cheaper and its easier. I hope this helps
your trans oil most likely needs changing. it should be changed every 50,000 mile. over time the fluid breaks down and the trans mission slips. your trans is operated by pressure and when it is hot he pressure drops because the oil is not as thick as it should be this is refered as viscoscity. In the mean time until you get it changed, you can buy an additive from Napa for around 10.00 dollars to put in the trans. it's made by Lucas Oil and it works for the slipping in the short term. please rate this
