My transmission slips at low speed only 700 1991

posted by  someone claiming to be Bob Singeltary on  Thu Mar 3 13:45 CST 2005 [RELATED]

Volvo 740 turbo wagon, near 200,000 miles. Out of nowhere the transmission began to slip departing the driveway the other morning. After researching the board, I had the transmission fluid changed/flushed at the local quick-change.
Nothing changed. Hmmm... A little more investigation shows that it only slips at low speed and the way I overcome it is to place the selector in position 1 or 2, get going above 10 mph, then place it in D , car continues as normal, just as smooth as can be. When I hit a traffic light, I have to repeat this procedure. Sure it is a minor inconvenience to some, but to me it is not right.
Please help me if you can as am not sure what to do next. I really like my wagon, it ran great until this happened. Thanks, Bob
