What its doing to troll me;

Shifting is indecisive when shifting second to third - does the "second-third-second-third" thing.

BUT, here's the catch, it only does it when I leave from work. I kid you not. I start first thing in the morning and it does NOT do the weird shift. I can drive it quickly and it doesnt do it. I park at work, do my eight or nine hours, get in the car and BAM it does the funky shifter on me.

BUT, here's the second catch it only does it once. I leave from work; first - second - "funky shifter - third - fourth - fifth. I take off from the next intersection and its back to normal, shifting beautifully and its good for the rest of the drive home.

First thing in the morning = good
Drive to work = good
Leave from work = funky shifter
Drive home from work = good

- I don't park on a hill, or near a giant electro-magnet.
- Transmission fluid level is good.
- Transmission service was 8000km ago
- Transmission is otherwise fantastic, smooth and responsive, reliable.
- No leaks, no warning lights or sounds.
- Last time I disconnected the battery for a re-learn was... five months ago?

Only thing I haven't tried is simulate a working day, parking it up for eight hours, at a different location.

TLDR; My tranny is messing with my mind.
