Hi

It won't go into 'top' gear (the most relaxed sounding one) until the car is warmed up. When my temp guage hits 50% it goes up a gear (well, technically the torque converter lock-down kicks in) straight away.

Have been some other threads about this will try and find a link for you.

THANKS JAMES FOR YOUR HELP :D
 
Also remember it won't go into top gear (or rather top gear and torque converter locked down) until you hit 53mph too. (looks more like 56 on the speedo).

Annoying in 50mph limit zones.

When you change the trans oil change the trans filter( inside the pan on the bottom of the transmission) they usually get ignored and when abit blocked the oil has a job getting thru till it thins down due to rise in temperature. HTSH
