I'm having problems with my transmission. It won't shift when the truck is warmed up. It doesn't shift out of first gear or go into reverse. But if I turn off the truck and start it again it works OK. I wonder if it needs a new transmission. I bought it a week ago, and it drove OK for the first ten miles. When I came out of overdrive it would only go 50 mph, and it seems to get worse all the time. Do you think I need a new transmission?
