a little concern ? when its cold or the engine tranny is cold when i go from park to drive or reverse i hear a long squeek and a delay until the tranny engages either into drive or reverse , if the engine and tranny is warm i dont hear any of these issues and no delay , can it be the servos on there way out ? theres 150k on it not sure if the tranny fluid was changed or low any sugestions ? thx
 






Definitely a concern -- maybe the torque converter.

Thread renamed BTW.
 






ahh what are the signs of a t/converter going out i have an 03 eddie bauer 150k i DO NOT feel any slippage or sluggish or lugs when starting out from a dead stop
 






If I recall correctly, my transmission crumbled at about 33k. Heard no sounds except for a quick quiet squeal and hard shift from P to D or R and back... then it went back to normal, and crumbled right after. But the solenoid was recently changed due to hard shifting in and out of reverse.
