All other gears work? Something on the reverse side as you are aware.
Alot could be going on. Is the fluid level full and in good condition? more

As suggested, check the fluid level and condition first. Also check for any trouble codes that might be stored. More information on these problems at the link College man provided for you.

Good luck and please keep us updated on your progress.

You didn’t mention what kind of car you are dealing with.
With codes –
The bad news here is more often than not, you will notice driveability problems long before any codes decide to pop up.

It sounds like there are internal seals leaking, seals that control the pistons for the clutch packs. I bet this problem is worse the colder it is outside.

Long story short – It is time to take it to a shop that can properly diagnose it. This is probably not just “an easy adjustment” or other wishful thinking.
Meanwhile, you need to decide if it is practical to spend anywhere from $2,000 to $2,500 if it needs a rebuild (pretty much count on that)
