C6 problems

MY trans wont shift from 2-3 unless the shifter is moved from D to 2 then back to D over 35 or so MPH. Often to shift from 1 -2, i also have to shift from D to 2. It shifts well (not to hard, soft etc).
I topped up the fluid (which looked clean). I plan on changing the fluid an d filter when i get time

THis is an old fire rescue truck with a 460 and 79K orignal miles. I assume, however that it spent a lot of time idling, etc at the firehouse.

TIA
Sean

Check for fluid in the vacumn line to the modulator. You may have a leaky vacumn modulator.
