It sounds like you may have a problem with the transmission fluid foaming which is common when the transmission is over filled with fluid. This will commonly cause erratic shifting problems. I would suggest having a professional from YourMechanic come to your location to properly drain the fluid and flush your transmission fluid, which should solve your shifting problem.
