I bet you are low on transmission fluid when its inclined the fluid pools near the pickup tube. then when you are flat it all puddles away from it. Check the fluid level and add more if it needs it but make sure its the right fluid for your car or you will ruin the trans.
Do you mean start the car in drive? if so that problem is inhibitor switch. Other shift problems can be caused by TPS (throttle posistion sensor) if applicable
Still think ot vacuum related .This will push the revs up sky high .Get a good cigar and pulloff a vacum pipe .Take a good puff on the cigar now puff the emoke down the vaccum pipe .Now do you know what your looking for .You got it ,,, smoke ,,,,than you have found the leak.Thats if you have one ..Can you get a obd check it will tell you what it is ..Thermostat removal wont change the engine revs
The forester diesel 6spd gear box is designed to replace the high low gear box so although starting off in second or third gear is possible .... puts a lot of strain on compents ie clutch/ gear box . very slow manuovering is much better carried out in 1st gear , as is moving from stationary . The engine torque is low dow the rev range high max idle is reached very quickly . The diesel engine characteristics are different to the petrol version ( I own 2.5 forester 2009 - 7.8l per km's @55000 km's). So you need to change your driving style to suit . I have test driven the 2.0l Diesel and sufficiently impressed to replace the 2009 version with the diesel .
YOU NEED A NEW CLUTCH, THE HIGH PEDAL ENGAGEMENT IS THE GIVE AWAY ON THAT, THIS IS THE PROBLEM WITH THE SHIFTING AS WELL, CLUTCH OVER TRAVEL DUE TO A WORN OUT DISK.
Depending on who serviced it. Was it a reputable place? If the fluid and filter were definately changed, your tranny is going out. Just wear and tear with those kind of miles. Hope it helps
