Although, in general, dropping the pan to clean the strainer is useless (and a TSB instructed that cleaning the strainer should no longer be routinely serviced), this is beginning to seem like a special case.

So I'll go along with Bruce ("Lucid") about suspecting that the strainer is becoming clogged with accumulated debris as fluid is drawn up through it.

But if only to save you the trouble before you know for sure, is there a way to drain the sump through a drain plug? I've seen some tranny's with a small plug, through which you could withdraw a sample and pour though a piece of paper to visually check for debris.
