Re: Hard Shifting

The problem relates to inconsistent operation of the pressure control solenoid, which affects shifting of the tranny. The colder temps allow thicker viscosity tranny fluid, keeping the shift more normal.

Once the temp comes up, the fluid will thin out and your problem will return. (Except during the first 20 minutes of operation while the oil is still coming up to temp.)
