The last time we had this problem in the shop it was an AW71 and the valve body was sticking. a thorough cleaning cured the problem. It has been 2 years and the car has not had a problem since. Two clues , 1st trans fluid was very dirty and 2nd clue, it shifts in 1st gear manually. If the tranny cooler was leaking in the rad you should see swollen hoses and pink coolant caused by the ATF, or at a very minimum an oilly ring on the top of the coolant inside the expansion tank.
