Yes, the trans fluid was checked in both conditions (cold, then hot after a 30 mile run). Checked in Park idling, after slowly moving the selector through all gears.
Type F fluid, proper level. The dip stick is the correct one for the car.
Maybe I am just paranoid. But that 5 to 10 second delay troubles me. Funny thing is, it is inconsistent. I got in the car this morning and it engaged right away. Thsi morning's conditions (time idle, temperature etc) were no differnt than other mornings.
One clue, that MAY have something to do with it is that I park on a 5 to 10 degree slope. However, this morning's start was also in that same aspect.
I think I will try a bit of tranny Conditioner. Any thoughts or recommendations?
