We had a cold snap last week with temps into the -20's (when it's that cold, it doesn't matter if it's F or C ) Since my office is less than a 1/8th mile from the highway, I ended up getting up to speed while the engine/trans is still quite cold. I noticed a couple times that it seemed like the torque converter wasn't locking up. The engine was turning about 2500rpm to do 60, IIRC. I dropped it down to 3rd gear to check, and it downshifted, then shifted back when I put it into Drive, which is what makes me think it's the TC.
Seems to be fine when warmed up.
Is this normal for a D2 when it's this cold, or a sign of another problem? (tranny oil too old/thick, etc.)
