This is a NIGHMARE COME TRUE
im on 1988 SSE,i was driving around town,.and i noticed the car was shifting a bit late, 2700 RPM'* instead of the usual 2200RPM'*..it was kinda cool,so maybe she needed some fluid,turns out she needed almost a quart,filled her up and she still wouldnt shift normally,so i get to work,after work,for almost a 1/2 mile,she wouldnt shift out of 1st gear!!!..i was scared to hell...so i pull over,and i pull out again,and she shifted at about 3500RPM,and took forever to shift in to 3rd,and refused to shift into OD at about 70mph(110km) and the RPM'* abour 2500..
any chance this could be a tv detent cable issue?

cehcked cable,it was as same as when she was shifting fine?..
