Delayed shifting is because the Transmission Fluid is not warm enough to move through the internals of the transmission. You may need a transmission service,,,,,fluid change, new filter, etc. Transmission Fluid degrades with age.

Why does a Chevrolet venture minivan shift hard after it warms up but shifts smooth when cold?

I had the exact same problem and it ended up being the coolant temp that affected the trans operation. Do a coolant flush and refill of fresh fluid. The trans cooler lines run through the radiator. If the coolant runs too hot, so does the trans oil which causes shifting issues. I did the flush myself with an off the shelf product like bardahl or whatever and it hasn't shifted hard again for well over a year.
