Default shifting issues!!!

Hey guys, if any of you live in cold weather climates i want some input on this. During startup in the cold do u guys experience tougher shifting especailly in second. Is this normal??? I talked one local guy and he says he has the same problem. It shifts fine after warm up just wanna make sure its normal.

Think of it this way...are you slow early in the morning when you wake up for work? Me too...it's normal, I just think about it as the car is waking up...give it some time. Kinda weird but I think it's normal

Yes it is normal. Let your car warm up before you just drive away, especially in the cold. Let it warm up for a few minutes then you're good.
