clarification 900 1994

Replace bushings. Check kickdown condition.

Then as others have suggested move on to fluid if shifting issues are not resolved. Have you checked the fluid level with the transmission warm? If low, that can definitely cause shifting issues. Does it ever slip too? That shouts low fluid level…:)

Agree with the other posters. Flush with cheap fluid and refill. Synthetic is best. Switched my 95 850 to synthetic ATF and the tranny still shifted like new when I sold it at 250k.
