To be more clear... when I start with a cold engine the change up through the gears is taking longer than usual and the response to the accelerator seems slower too, Then a few minutes later it suddenly corrects with a burst of acceleration. After that it is pretty much as usual but sometimes is again a bit slow in changing gear. My first thought was fuel blockage but that usually means low rpm whereas I can reach 3000 and more rpm ok.
I dont understand how the auto works, could someone explain. Can the state of the oil in the gearbox affect as above?

Re: Auto gearbox change in performance
if you don't drive at 2,000 rpm or less till the engine and gearbox warm up ( engine temp gauge @ 11 oclock) then gearbox wont change gears properly
