2018 Infiniti Q50 — delayed engagement into Drive when cold

2018 Infiniti Q50 Red Sport, about 76,500 miles. After sitting overnight, shifting from Park to Drive can take a second or two before the vehicle actually engages. Once warm it behaves normally. Would you start with fluid, adaptation data, mounts or something mechanical?

Start with the test that can prove you wrong. If a shop can't duplicate it on the 2018 Infiniti Q50, bring a video plus freeze-frame data, not just a story. That's the branch I'd chase this week. I'd want that in writing, not as a promise. Your commute and mine probably aren't the same, but the test still applies. I refuse to clear codes until someone else sees them.
