It's dying. Funny thing is that it can last a year or two acting like that, maybe even more. Mine went two years under those conditions.

It sounds like your mlps AKA neutral safety switch. Do a search for mlps and you will see all the problems. They cost about $25 from az.95red said:

There is a parts list on this link http://www.tccoa.com/articles/tranny/transmission/d95.jpg . You will need the top 5 parts on the list and the 2 2.7" OD servo parts. And then you will need a separator gasket but for that parts # have ford look it up. Here are instruction on installing the parts. http://www.tccoa.com/articles/tranny/transmission/shiftybusiness.shtml

To install the safety switch. Get under your car and on the drivers side of the trans that is were the switch is. it's held on by 2 8-10 mm bolts. Just unplug the sensor and remove the two bolts. after you replace the sensor let the bolts say a little lose and you will see there is slack on the sensor where you can rotate it. Put the car in neutral and on the sensor there is a line on the sensor then one oon the part that rotates with the car in neutral line up the lines then tighten the bolts down then plug it in. I would try this first. If this dosent help then if your willing you can try messing with the trans valve body and or tighting the valve body bolts.bjl95mustang said:
Hopefully, it will be the MLPS, but it wasn't in my case. It finally just got stuck in 2nd gear. It would only do it once every few months until right before it died. The week before it crapped out, it was doing it all the time. The thing went out while I was on my way to the trans shop to have it checked out. I had it rebuilt and kept the kit that was in it.
The importance of a good cooler can't be stressed enough with these trans.

Mrgreen94gt, how much was rebuild on your tranny? is it worth it to buy another AODE if mine is screwed or is it better to just go all out and put manual in it? Im getting sick of pullin up to a honda civic and loosing cuz my car feels like it slows down when i try to get on it, EVERYONE give me some info on what i should do if its screwed????
I shot you a Private Message when I saw the other thread. Guess it wouldn't hurt to put it here though. 
I paid about $650 at a local shop, which included them removing the trans and putting it back in. I'm notsure what they charged for that, I'll see if I can dig up the receipt. Everywhere is different, but that seems to be fairly standard cost for that type of thing.

Bump, anyone know what it will take to just get a tranny place to rebuild it for me? can you give me a price for that, and give me a price for if they had to take it out and put it back in to, cuz i might have a buddy take it out and put it back in if it will cost a crap load for that but he doesnt want to rebuild it for me he said. and also what the transgo kit costs and do you see much of an improvement with the kit o isnt it worth buying???

Check out this link. There is a free shift kit on there. On the cost of a rebuild. When mine was having problems i got quoated between $1200-2000 for a rebuild. I ended up just doing it myself and saved a lot of $$$. You can get a complete rebuild kit of of ebay for $50-100 and then you need a mech diaode witch costs about $120 but I just saw on on ebay for $30 and then you only need a special set of seal protectors and a manual witch costs about $100 for both. Also here is a video and a break down of the trans http://www.mn12performance.com/mn12-techinfo/trans-tech/4r70w-trans-tech.htmlbjl95mustang said:

You might or you might not. It just depends on your car. If you install the gears the only time you might have shifting problems would be 90%-wot throttle. It would still drive around fine.

Like I said, prices vary from place to place. For a little more, you may be able to have a fresh performance one delivered to you or a stock rebuilt one may be cheaper.

This place has stock units for 1150 and a high performance version for 1850. There are other places too. I would make sure that I needed it first.

Your paying for labor. You can get a great stock rebuild kit for about $120. I would call a couple of you local shops and talk to customers of those shops with mustangs and see how the like the trans that they got.
