    Several thoughts:

    . Drop and clean transmission pan. This should give you a good idea if anything unusual is going on.

    . Check second gear's solenoid.

    . Check/replace Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) and alignment.

    . Ensure transmission fluid and filter are changed every 30,000 miles--I recommend Mobil 1 Synthetic ATF.

    If fluid and filter have not been changed regularly, consider Auto-RX treatment. This should help remove any sludge and deposits. Afterwards, use Mobil 1 Synthetic ATF.
