Have a 1996 K1500 Suburban 4X4 with 350 and 225,000 miles, (140,000 on transmission). Past year when it is cold the trans would slip fo a second or two when shifting into drive and then it was fine. This morning when I was pulling onto the highway it started slipping in 3rd / Overdrive and then was ok until about 10 miles later and it seems to have lost 3rd / OD. I still have 1st and 2nd. I changed the tranny fluid about 10,000 miles ago.

Any check engine light? At that mileage, sounds like you got your moneys worth out of the trans. Dont be too surprised if it needs a rebuild. If th elight is on , have the PCM scanned, Autozone will do it for free
