Suzuki Sidekick auto tranny problem...please help..

My 1993 Suzuki Sidekick with 3 speed auto will shift normally from

1-2,but when it shifts to #3 it just gets a neutral,no pull at all....Untill it gets hot,then suddenly everything works fine,even lockup....but if you stop for even 10 minutes it has to be driven in #2 until it gets hot again.It drives fine in #2 but top speed is about 40mph ....then again,when it gets hot,like after 30-40min. it will drive/shift normally...Any ideas appreciated!

Thanks,Bob

It sounds like a piston seal is failing in the piston/drum assembly that engages high gear. IOW, an overhaul and inspection is needed to remedy.
