Wow,
It's getting interesting. I am beginning to nurture a hope that I will get of cheap this time.
I have a question.
1 - Does first-second solenoid control drive engagement? My tranny shifts just fine from 1st to 2nd or any other gear for that matter.
2 - This condition only occurs after the car has not been used for a couple of days. After the first time I put it in drive and it does what I've described, it acts normal the rest of the day and nobody can tell that something is wrong.
Again, thanks for your help!
The selinoid is sticking when it is cold. Clean and or replace them.
