GM5 auto gearbox s a pain not like ZF that is robust..had the same issue like you before. i've checked that the main culprit for the high temp is the cooler. but unfortunately my GB was already in a bad shape then as i went back to my hometown without realizing it. so even after resolve the GB temp ( normal temp should be around 80c to 90c) my GB still gave problem to me.even changed torque converter but still not resolved till i opt to get a used GB.cost me about RM4000 total minus back the item that i have changed(torque converter). it's been almost 9 month now and everything is ok.
