Most auto trannys have a park switch, a reverse switch and an anti-creep switch. All if these serve a function. It sounds like either . Sounds like the anti-creep which holds the car while stationary may be out of place, judging by the stick fidddling. Also, if the transmission fluid is bad, it has lost its viscosity, so as it heats up, it becomes thinner, and less effective if there are hydraulic functions it has to perform, whih it probably does. Get the Fluid changed and the filter leaned first, and check that all the switches are mounted and seure and working. BOL
