Autobox slipping / losing drive

Does anybody have any thoughts on a autobox that starts off ok, then loses drive after a bit, but if stopped for a while regains its drive?

I'm thinking lack of ATF.

How much would i be looking at for a replacement box, and what is the difference between an A25 and A35 box (to fit a 2.5)

If you repalce the box then its worth fitting an AR35 as it is stronger.

Sounds like oil lack but, worth changing it anyway as it always helps.

Any difference in ratios between AR25 and AR35?

Slight difference, but nothing noticable.

As the boss says, change the fluid first. It is much easier and less time consuming!
