I had that problem with my Lincoln about 6 years into its life.  I changed
the fluid and it was fine after that.

One of the electric solenoids might also be going fritzy.  I'm not sure if
that's easy to replace on a Toyota.  I'd try the fluid change first.  A
garage can do it for $100 or so with a coupon.
