Follow the thread, it'l keep you outta trouble.
I'm afraid you have more than adjustment problems. Dropping the pan will reveal. Reasoning: Band is not applied in drive/low. Clutch is slipping.
In reverse: rear band is applied, but front clutch also.
If magnet looks like chocolate Krispy Kreem donut and there is more than quarted sized load of metal in pan, keep on pulling for repair.
