Default Another 4L60e going bad?

When my car shifts from 1-2nd when cold it shifts perfect,when it warms up it holds at about 3k and doesn't shift for about 5 or 6 secs. Same thing in 2-3,but sometimes winds out til 4k,today it wound out til 5500 and I let off the gas to let it shift.. It always slips in reverse then grabs. The fluid was just changed,it was red and no metal shavings..I'm confused...

I just backed it out of the garage and it just sat there in reverse for a good 10 secs before it grabbed..

there's no might about it... you'd wonder why you didn't do it sooner sorry to hear it went out on ya, but sounds like you'll be getting a sweet setup when its through.

yeah i still have one boxer and shes 1 and my other girl boxer died like 2 years ago and she lived to be about 9....i would go with a 3500 or bigger i have a 3500 and love it,and from what everyone tells me if you go any lower you wont be happy,the stall hasnt really even affected my everyday driving either so dont worry bout that..
