15 degree weather today. Shifts into first and second fine then when time to shift into third engine revs up as if in neutral. Fluid level ok. Never had any problems from trans before. Could a valve or vacuum line have frozen condensation? What do you think?

take it to a trans shop it could be minor . But when a trans fails nowadays it only stays i 2n d gear. Somethign likethis you need a pro to look at it. they shouldn't have to take it apart to diagnose it.
