@poster, younghopper is absolutely right. There is nothing wrong with your transmission. Coolant temperature of your car can't be read by on board computer in your car. The guess here is that the temperature sensor fitted to your car's radiator has been disconectted. If reconnected you should be fine.

@op

Check the car airflow sensor/switch. Open the air flow box, clean the filter and re-insert it. It might have accumulated much dirt or the switch is bad.

Rather than go the "trial-and-error" route, why not have your car scanned? Cars were made OBD compliant for a reason - to cut down fault finding time to a minimum. Yet you choose to ignore it.

Good luck.

I have scanned it earlier and got a code 9208 which i dnt understand. The accelaration from a total stop is okay, my prob is the acceleration from a partial stop when braking from a top speed. Example, when u are on a top speed and suddenly had to apply little brake, to accelerate at that point becomes a problem otherwise it runs fine when it picks up speed.
