Tranny coolers only prolong life, they won't heal your transmission. Get the transmission flush and see if it improves, if not you've got the 60k powertrain warranty. Have the dealer go over everything with a fine-tooth comb.

The dealer NEVER goes through your car with a fine-tooth comb unless your car has an expired warranty.
