This is most likely due to worn pressure seals inside the transmission. worn seals will lead to lower hydraulic pressure causing a slower shift. this will be felt as a "lag" or a "slip" when it shifts.

New AnswerIn my experience, Ford transmissions will start slipping when the fluid wears out. I'd recommend a fluid change first.

When the fluid in a Ford transmission is done it is done. If not fixed the transmission well be shortly as well. I could smell the Transmission Fluid burning on my windstar and had the fluid change and have since put another 20,000miles on it. The ford service technical said its not like a gm transmission they will last longer while working very poorly.
