yes that is what it is, but I have no clue how to fix it or how much it costs to get fixed?

basically ya need a new one.. when they mess up.. thats it.. they get all corroded and sieze up.
its located on the side of the transmission.. right side of the trans. kinda middle of the trans oil pan but on the side of the trans.
its a lil tricky to do yourself but can be done.
cost wise.. not sure.. maybe around $150.

I would please like to know what is a upshift delay switchover valve and if one is without function what is happening to my car?

it holds vacuum or something, i think its there to hold the gears longer on warmup of the car to prevent damage, dont think its an imminent repair part is $35 at autohausaz.com
