What oil is in it, and is it cold outside?

An old tranny with 10w-30 engine oil in it, doesn't like to shift into second when cold. Once the engine warms up, shifting into second is much easier.
I would imagine a new tranny with 10w-30 in the cold would be even worse.
I would use Redline MTL in it from the start.
