transmission acts up in the cold
feel free to move it! not sure i posted in the right section!
my 2005 v6 5 speed seems to shift clunky in the cold weather.
even if i let it warm up 5-10 minutes before driving it. any suggestions?
oh yeah. fluid was changed closer to 55k miles im not at about 68k

Does it eventually go away? I'm thinkin' 5-10 minutes isn't enough time to warm it up.

RP is great oil for these transmissions. Mine had a really balky 2nd from power shifting at the track, wouldn't shift at all over 4k, often locked out or ground in normal driving...changed to RP synchromax, better than new within a half hour of driving...dunno what's in it, but 2 yrs later still great- including 8 or 9 more runs just last week on the rev limiter ![Smile](https://themustangsource.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
