Hey guys, over last summer I noticed my transmission with 50,000miles would start out in 2nd sometimes after it had been driven for over 15 min or more. It would stay in 2nd at a light and when you hit the gas it would shift to first and run like a top through the gears. I had the bands adjusted and the gov pressure regulator/transducer replaced and it seemed to be gone as as it cooled down outside (below 90*) it was problem free.
Anyway today (about 6months later) I noticed it tried to start in 2nd maybe 3rd once today and downshifted to first when I hit the throttle. I also noticed when I floor the truck at WOT (not something I do normally) it revs to 3,000 before shifting out of first and will not shift past 2nd (holds around 3200) until I let off the throttle a little and then it will bang into 3rd and 4th. All shifts are very strong and it is not slipping. Anyone know what this could be? I really want to catch it early before it costs me a lot of money or leaves me stranded when I drive across the country in a month.
