If anyone has ever ask an engineer to explain something to them , you will understand what I just went through, after an hour and 45 minutes of talking to a power train engineer he finally got down to the nuts and bolts and told me the transmission fluid is designed to Run at a certain temperature, he said that because the transmission shifts are controlled by solenoids, that having the fluid a certain temperature , they know what the viscosity and the flow characteristics of the fluid is ,So they can maintain optimum shift quality
I once drove a Prevost tour coach, Allison BR500 transmission, and the wiring harness with the temp sending unit shorted out.
The coach shifted harder than a Mustang with a shift kit...
