I have a puzzling issue with my H55 that started rather recently. When the transmission is relatively cold it shifts up and down through all the gears fine. When it gets hot (ie after driving on the freeway in 5th) it does not want to down shift to lower gears. Sometimes the gears will grind. Lots of resistance in the shift gate.
Does this sound like the clutch is not disengaging completely? If I rev the motor some I can get it to go into gear. My truck does have an adjustable slave and I was thinking of adding a 1/4 turn or something to it. What is strange to me is why this would not happen all the time and just when hot.
Upshifting through the gears is always fine.
Thoughts? Replace the slave? New fluid? Shifter seat and cap? Other?
Looking for some troubleshooting guidance before I go start messing with a bunch of stuff that is not a likely culprit.
