A broken temp sensor (not sure where it is located in this case) would affect the performance in any way?
I am also curious if a clogged transmission cooler would somehow affect transmission itself?
Sorry, I just have too many questions and I appreciate you guys sharing ideas for sure..
Thanks,

If the sensor was off and giving a colder or lower reading to the computer, the upshifting will be held a little bit longer in order to warm up the ATF and gearbox. You may notice this in cold weather where the first shift from 1-2 is held a little bit longer.
