Make sure the fluid level is correct. You do this by having the vehicle idleing in park, then pulling the transmissiom dipstick, wipe it off with a clean rag or paper towel, reinsert ioto the tube making sure it's fully seated. Then remove it and look at the level on the lines [ there should be a " cold" level mark if not warmed up ], see if it's in the proper range, if not add fluid. [ this vehicle takes Dexron 3 fluid. Next look at the color of the fluid, if it's very dark or smells like it's burnt, then I would recomend having the transmission filter and fluid service as a first step and go from there. you could also have the cooling fan clutch checked as it can affect the proformance of the shifting [ sounds weird, but true ]. If nothing seems to help,or if you don"t feel like guessing - go to a good shop that specalizes in tramsmission work.
