You're either low on fluid or some crud has worked its way into the TINY passages in the solenoid. It's usually filthy down there on the side of the transmission- if you choose to replace it yourself, CLEAN CLEAN CLEAN the underside. Use Gunk engine cleaner, lots of washing, a do-it-yourself car wash, whatever to clean it off, and follow it up with lots of brake cleaner or similar no-residue cleaner.

It's pretty simple other than that to change it out though it helps to have small hands. Electrical connector takes some patience to get apart thoguh it's just 1 pin.
