How cold is it? The fluid needs to get warmed up when its realy cold, freezeing type weather.

0 - 10C? Yeah, that's a LITTLE chilly; You might do a fluid / filter swap, and give it at least 30-45 sec. warm-up time in neutral.....

Mine would take awhile to go in lock up in freezeing weather in the morening. They are supposed to do that until it gets warmed up. But no problem shifting to second. Sounds like your valve in your v/b is sticking.

Id change the oil , and probably go through the V/B. Check your pan for debree and metal. If you have metal stuck in your V/B eventualy your trans is gonna fry completely.
