Within the last few days I have noticed my transmission beginning to slip when shifting into first and second gears. It only slips when the engine is cold or the car sits for a few hours. After driving for about five or ten minutes the symptoms disappear and the trasmission shfits normally.

Any Sugesstions?

Thanks for your help!

Check trans fluid level with a warm engine and engine running, add as needed.

Look for trans fluid leaks especially at CV axle in tans.
