You can certainly have trans fluid too cool. Why would they route the lines next to the exhaust manifolds if they didn't want it up to temp? They make trans fluid to work up to 250+ degrees. It does degrade faster at those temps, but I would run it at 200 all day long. I've tore apart e40Ds, 5r110s and 48res. Clutch slip from soft shifts and not enough line pressure ruins more trannies than heat. Plus fluid these days is made very "slippery" for the softest shifts because people are whiners. There are some superior fluid concoctions out there over the oem.
