transmission behavior ?, please feel free to specualte/ a quick engage/disengage in first at slow speed 850

1995 850 turbo wagon, 109k miles. Bought it at 72 k, had been regularly serviced. I switched to mobil 1 in engine and tranny. No problems or quirks until 105k, premature downshifting, kind of jerk down in gear early before speed was down. It was 33k so i did a tranny flush again with mobil per bay 13 instructions. fixed the prob. New prob is a quick engage disengage in first gear at walking speeds, notice it in parking lots or stop and go traffic. It is not AC cycling, doesnt seem to happen in first 5-10 min of driving while engine and tranny warms up. The rest of shifting seems fine. I cant replicate it on command with some kind of brake, drive distance combo it just happens. I looked up all the comments I could on the throttle position sensor, My hanes manual doesnt even mention the part. Is this a sign the tranny is going the way of all the earth? Fluid level was a tad high so I brought it down today but havent driven it since to see if it helped. thanks for all your help.
