Well, I went all Rainman on the tech docs -- tried to memorize the whole thing -- and I swore I read about this already... So tonight I looked through the docs again for you, and here's what I found:

Page 1316: Chart5a - Delays in Drive and Reverse
NOTE: A short delay (less than 3 seconds) when first engaging drive or reverse after allowing vehicle to sit overnight is normal.

If it was more than that, you're led to page 1321, where it talks about possible causes of Low Line Pressure.


One of the causes of low line pressure is *ahem* having balls out of place. How to fix? "Install balls."


Gawd, I really need to grow up one of these days... Anyway, do you think it is possible that this was just the 3-second thing? That what I thought it was in my case. However, a few weeks later, my mode switch started freaking out. I have no idea if those are related.
