How do I tell if a car needs a new transmission?

I went to check out a 1993 honda accord I am thinking of buying. However I noticed a kind of delay in "pick up" when I change my gear from park to "D4". After a few seconds the car picks up though. However if I start driving from gear "1" the pick up is normal. I was under the assumption that driving on "D4" always was ok but my friend told me D4 is only for highway. Can someone tell me if this car has a transmission issue that will need replacement? Thanks

If it grinds or is hard changing gears then you may have problems. Ask the person your buying from if they ever had trouble.
