Post Transmission Malfunction! Please HELP!!

Hi!

I need a big help!
My bird(94 V8) is sick and nobody knows what could be THE problem!So, the thing is Your driving, the stick is in the D (drive)position.Driving normally trying to hold an exact speed.(like on the highway Your going with 55 mph) Suddenly around 1500-2500 RPM (but it doesn't matter,because it does it at any RPM and at any speed, but mostly at this RPM)the transmission pops out the gear,RPM goes up(because You still pushing the gas! if You release it it drops back, it's like the transmission is in neutral and You playing with the gas).Tranny is not in any gear(car is still in motion, stick is still in D (drive)!), feels like You driving a stick-shift and You just pushed the clutch
while You moving and pushing the gas too. Then the car put itself back to gear,(without gear about 2-3 sec)and now You can move it by pushing the gas.Sometimes it does it only once by the time, sometimes two-three times popping out-in-out-in the gear. There is no serious sounds or moves when it does it, no kicking, no jumping, no shaking, just no gear while You trying to move the car. Another interesting fact: it's
happening only 25-30 minutes after You started the car, but after that a lot of times.Before those 30 minutes nothing!! Like a new car, beautiful shifting.


We changed the tranny oil(Mercon ATF), filter, gasket, dried the whole system! Pumped out all the used oil, even from the torque converter.The used oil was clean, not dirty,like new!


Guys, any idea????!
Please help I wanna ride at summertime! ;))

Thanks, Andras
