Thanks for the encouraging words.
I'm thinking along the same lines re. temperature related - not necessarily mechanical. When I drove it this morning, it seemed like usual - normal shifting, no weird noises.
I guess it still could be a transmission issue when it warms up, but there are still things to diagnose.

Fortunately she can use the smokin' '95 854T for now. Gives me an excuse to get back in the 145. Still gathering information and possibilities on the S40. I don't want to jump into any repairs or get rid of the car yet without a good diagnosis.

I guess now I have to figure out what computer(s) may be overheating or causing the issue. Seen a lot of simple broken solder connections that can cause havoc. Thing is, I don't even know where to start. I think Haynes has a electrical diagram.
