Help- Wrench light- No Codes
2013 Mustang GT convertible automatic, completely stock. Happened a few months back and starting to happen more regularly. Usually when I first start up and I notice it more as the weather is getting colder. Starts out running as it should but with harder shifts from start to 3rd gear. When I come to a full stop, I go to take off again, it's like the transmission slips out of gear. It revs up but does not engage. I pull to the side, turn off the engine and restart and it runs and shifts as it should. Recently it happened and the wrench light came on but no codes were thrown. If I use the Sport Shift and "manually" shift, transmission runs and shifts perfectly. It has recently gave me the same problem using the SS mode. I don't think it is the transmission as it runs great when I manually shift it. I did put a new throttle body on it as I had read that might be the culprit but am still having the same issues. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated!

130K ish on the car. No trans service. I am looking at changing the transmission fluid and filter but possibly looking to do more while have have the pan off. I just don't want to start throwing parts at it in hopes that it may fix it. I'll check the fluid level tomorrow to see where it is at but I do not have any leaks and with the closed system, I assuming it should be good as far as level but def be a good time to change it out.

I know with my 2011 E150 had the wrench light came on and trans started doing weird crap I ended up getting the trans rebuilt. Get it looked at before it gets to that. BTW no codes for the trans on the Tuner on it until it broke.
