that's not good at all! it sounds like your transmission is starting to go. when the engine is cool the Transmission Fluid is thicker and is settled. when it warms up it is thinner making it easier to shift it. the best thing you can do is take it to a shop and ask them to do a transmission flush. it'll by you a little more time and it is worth it! shouldn't be anymore than $150. just ask for a quote up front. other than replacing the whole transmission, that is really your only option. and It'll give you a better idea of whats going on. good luck!
