If you have already done the fluid and filter change. I was told by a shop to try to adjust the modulator. On the driver's side there is a black rubber boot. Take it off and ease the pin back and turn it clockwise to shift harder. I just did the f&f service tonight, so I am hoping that works on mine and I don't have to try and adjust anything. Mine was slipping in 4th when hot. Filter was black but the fluid wasn't to bad and not metal in the pan. From what I have been reading in the owners bible. It sounds like your discs are warn.
