Sometimes after the car is warmed up, it won't shift into Reverse unless I rev it a little.

I have flushed the tranny fluid on my '93 940 turbo, added some TransX with the new fluid, redid the bushings on the shifter arm, adjusted the shifter so it has equal travel front and back, and checked the AT fluid level to make sure it's perfect...

So what's wrong?

As I said on an earlier post about this problem, the car only has 98,000 miles on it, and I'm having a hard time believing the tranny is already dead.

Should I pull the pan and clean the filter?

Is there a way to re-adjust the shifter to make sure it is solidly and firmly in reverse gear?
