automatic transmission aw71 loses traction in a 940T 900 1991

Hello:

I would thank for aid because in Spain there are not many automatic cars. My mechanical factory has given back the car to me saying that there is to change the entire transmission; it only has 74,000 miles, and I cannot believe it. Problem: In the beginning, after starting, everything goes well, the transmission shifts, but in the little short while, suddenly, the transmission becomes disconnected, losing traction; moving, I accelerate and the motor takes very much revolutions but the car does not obey and don´t shift up nor down, like it would be in neutral. I must stop the motor, wait a moment and repeat the operation. With the problem, if I accelerate in neutral it hears a slight buzzing noise of gears behind the motor like "the transmission has not enlisted". The oil is new. I revised the kickdown cable. Are OBC fault codes for tranny in a 940?

I apologize my english, any insight would be greatly appreciated

PD. To steve and Martin T : I thanks your messages a month ago, you see that the technician I went here didn't repair the trans.
