As it is warming up it runs more and more poorly. The speedometer starts jumping around, it will downshift repeatedly and even disengage and over rev. It is a problem that is getting progressively worse that I can barely go to the store 2 miles away and back. But warm or cold it always starts nicely.

Good afternoon,

Are there any codes set?

I am concerned about the transmission. It sounds like it is coming out of gear. You may have a clogged filter in the pan.

How long since you changed the fluid and filter?
