Believe it's due to glycol contamination due to the Valeo radiator

This is hard for me to believe. These cars are 12+ years old at this point. I would think if the radiator was going to fail it would have by now.

No one can shed light on why this is happening, your question is too vague and your troubleshooting makes it sound like you had this symptom and threw a conductor plate at the car.

This PDF link

http://www.all-trans.by/assets/site/...es/722.6.1.pdf

is the best troubleshooting manual I am aware of for the 722.6 trans. It was compiled by ASTG. It can assist you with verifying fluid level, verifying shift lever assembly is sending correct info to TCM etc. I think this manual will help point you in the right direction
