tranny pops out
Sometimes my tranny pops out of drive to neutral, but will go back into drive with no trouble. I also have noticed that it doesn't shift unless it is warmed up. Any ideas?

Your shift linkage cable could be out of adjustment.
To check it put the car in neutral with the ebrake on and wheels chocked.
Then go under the hood and loosen the cable nut positioning the shift arm in the center click position. Then re-tighten.

So when I put it in neutral, the shift arm will be in the center pos.? Pull the cable tight after loosening the nut, then tighten the cable nut back in place. :?

Its more like gently moving the linkage arm until it finds the center notch position then tighten the nut. You should not have to pull on the cable at all.
