Are you familiar with the TSB regarding the front pump gasket in the transmission? The gasket has a problem of failure, causing noise and/or lack of line pressure (up to 50% they say, probably more in the real world.) This will possibly/probably cause the lag going from P/N to D or R until enough pressure builds at idle to move things around inside the tranny. Once underway a better flow is built up and the tranny should act close to normal.
I just got back from the dealer, and the person who drove the car said that there are definitely serious tranny problems there. He stated that he believes that it is due to the gaskets in the transmission. I had them call the warranty company, who said that they will find a *used* transmission within a week to put into the car. Better than nothing, and if it breaks again then I guess the warranty company will have to redo.
