Transmission problem PLEASE HELP !!

Hi guys, check this out. I have a serious problem with my CL and I believe it's the transmission. Usually when I cross 230 km/h the car will suddenly loose power, however the rpm will build up while the speed of the car will only go up to 80km/h and it will regain power and speed after a couple minutes. Recently while I'm driving at a cruising speed of 100 km/h I will feel a "jerk" like if the gear changed very rough and the car's power will fail until it after a couple minutes it will come back to normal again.

PLEASE HELP ME GUYS !! I'm very lost....

Lots of views and no answers. I have not heard of too many transmission problems so you may be a trailblazer on this one. Keep us posted.

Thank you very much for your help. So it could very well be the IC pump. Can you check that through the diagnostic testing?

Yes... you can hook up a scanner and display the IAT and see how hot it's getting.
