    I have a 98 buick regal gs 3.8supercharged has the 4t65e-hd transmission. My issue is it takes about 2or 3 tenths of a mile to shift to second. What would cause this? No transmission trouble codes. Fluid is full and clean. It does not slip in any gear.

    Here are a couple of things to check:

    1. Check the torque converter to make sure that it is functioning correctly. It might be hanging up slightly.

    2. Check the clutch pack for second — some transmissions share this with reverse. It might be that due to wear and tear it is beginning to slip. If that is the case, it is a sure bet that the band associated with the clutch pack is also slipping and bingo there’s your problem.

    3. Have the transmission fluid filter checked. It is possible that the filter is stuffed and the flow of transmission fluid through the device is being slowed.

    4. Check the alignment of the input shaft. If it is slightly misaligned it could be causing your problem.
