Do you think it needs a service again. Or do you think it’s on it’s way out. Or could it possibly (fingers crossed tightly) be something todo with faulty outside temp saying -40?
Thank you

That -40 is another important clue, that points to an electrical problem. I once got that when the battery was low (just needed to be recharged, in my case). And yeah, here where I live it probably has not been -40 since the last ice age.
So putting these together, I'd say it's pointing to an electrical problem somewhere, and that the ATF, filter, gears, etc. in your AT are fine.
