Uh Oh!!.. Slipping. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I was driving home from the College today and when trying to leave the parking spot I was in, It took awhile for transmission to engage in reverse. It works fine in drive, but there is a big hesitation when trying to move in reverse.

Could I be loosing my tranny? I changed out the fluid, and replaced the gasket about 6 months ago, and have had a
slow leak after sitting for while. The fluid always reads full though?

Does anyone know what might cause the slip or hesitation?
How can the dipstick always read full, when I have been leaking forever?

I was thinking maybe the stick is too long???

Confused??
