If you've checked the fluid level according to the manual, and CHANGED
the tranny fluid according to the maintenance schedule, then you need to
quantify the word 'cold'. It was -16F (-27C) here the other day, but our
CRV shifts into all it's gears within the first two minutes. The block
heater had been plugged in for an hour or two. We 'take it easy' for the
first while because it's a way to the main highway.
If you change the tranny fluid, use real Honda stuff. It will shift
smoother and it's worth it.

Just like other people stated. It doesn't shift so that the rpms stay
higher longer to warm up quicker reducing emissions.

The Toyota Camry specifies that in cold weather the top gear will not
engage until the engine is at normal operating temperature. This might
be the case on the Civic as well.
