The vehicle transmission will not engage on drive when the weather is cold. Once the vehicle engine is warm the vehicle will operate normally.

Note: The transmission was completely rebuild four years ago with less than 20,000 on the rebuild transmission.

Please advise

Thank you

Hello,

Of course check the fluid level first. If okay the transmission seals may have gone bad. This is a classic seal problem becasue the seals work better when warmed up.

Please let us know what you find so it will help others.

Best, Ken
