    I have a 99 nissan Altima that seems to shift from park to drive or reverse with a clunk when cold. It will only do this when it gets real cold outside and it has been sitting.

    Hard shift

    I have a 99 Nissan Altima with auto, that when it is cold, below 20 degrees, shifts into gear a little harder than when it is warm. The transmission seems to perform just fine when driving, and shifts from park to reverse or drive just fine when it is warmer. It just shifts from park to reverse...
