    so I did a full transmission service myself with new filter, gasket and fluid today. cleaned up all the residue and the thing runs like a champ.

    I think what happened was trying to run the A/C (which needs a charge badly), the higher temps in the afternoon, plus pulling a boat at 80mph and had gone uphill a bit as well caused the problem.

    I will look and see what else could be the cause but as of now the tranny shifts perfect, ran through all the gears no problem, fluid looks good now, and is basically good to go.

    thanks to everyone for your help and input.
