Ok. I have to admit. I did it. I did transmission service on my 200K tranny. Thought it would make it smoother.

Drained, changed filter/gasket and filled, then flushed old fluid via cooler.
Filled with Valvoline MaxLife Full Synthetic Multi-Vehicle ATF.

Now the tranny does not shift from 1st when cold. Warmed up and rides nice.
Level is good.

I am thinking the valve is sticking. I checked the kickdown cable and it is free and clear of issues.

What gives?
