REBUILT TRANSMISSION
Got a torque converter solenoid code, took it into the shop and they put in the necessary parts I should have put in.
new converter, new clutch packs, new seals and whatevers. Transmission was slipping and all, in just about every gear after a while, wouldn't stay in 6th on the highway. Now it runs buttery smooth and the trans temps actually fall below 180 on the highway, which is crazy to me. That B&M cooler is really helping out. Just glad I have a better transmission...even if it did cost me about 3500. It'll be able to handle additional hp down the road too, I'm so happy.

3500$!!!
I thought it's cheaper to rebuild a trans in US than here Just done rebuilding my dads truck 6L90 we went with rebuilding the torque converter instead of buying a new one but everything else in the trans is new. Seals, clutches/plates (BW), pump and bell housing machined, TRUE COOL cooler and it all cost 1900$ including labor

Completely related, everything runs MUCH cooler now, so long as I'm at highway speeds. I expect it to be a little hot with the cam and Arizona temps anyways.
