trans. issue, is it slipping? why

trans. issue, is it slipping? why? When first putting it into drive there's no power for 1 second. After leaving driveway each morning it works great. Fluid level is ok, still looks pink. Don't know when last trans. filter change was done, should I start with that? I would think a trans.flush/ filter with that much mileage is a bad thing. Don't know any history, just purchased. No codes.

how many miles since last transmission flush etc.

color of the fluid means nothing other than it’s present.

Thanks, I believe the signature is listed above showing all the truck info. I have no clue when last filter change was done. It started doing this about 200 miles after i purchased it.

So after the one second delay the trans works fine?

Every morning i put it in drive and there's a one second delay to go forward. Temp out side is 60 degrees. Works good for the rest of the day, no delays.

Try letting it idle for a minute or two in park and see if the delay is still there.

sorry it’s not seen on the mobile app. Not many using a PC these days.
