that sounds like an electrical prob...myt have to try a new brain....any slipping? or hesistant gear change from lower gears?///

or simple switch problem..

yea kindda... always had a little slipping problem.. but only when i now start the car on a morning and i mash out for the first time.. the second gear would kindda slip.. and yea.. the other gears a taking like a little little longer to go in.. like a split second long since it is happening...

As soon as you said 'engine wash'. If it is a mechanical problem, it wouldn't give trouble one time and then work perfectly at other times - that sounds like and electrical short somewhere.

as the guys said 'sounds electrical'. I agree espescially since it was after an engine wash could be wrong too!!

I am having a similar problem with my tranny in that the gears are somewhat "slamming" in and taking long to go in. Checked my mechanic and he said it could be the "Sensor/Solenoid" that is going bad .....
