I think if the gearbox overheats it will keep it in a low gear so to aid the cooling quicker

Gearbox cooling strategy....

Best check oil condition as it usually does this when oil is losing condition!!!

Most likely culprit is the main radiator as the bottom gets clogged up with crap and its the bottom 6 rows that feed the oil cooler. It can't be flushed out as the bottom hose is higher up the rad
