I had similar issue (running hot, slippering, noisy, had it all at once). The transmission’s coolant vacuum valve broken in the 'SHUT' mode. That thing is all made of cheap plastic so very likely yours is fried as well. I've just toss away mine and bypassed the valve with a 3/4" aluminum tubing and two little clips ($2 fix). Now the tip is getting free flow of coolant 100% of the time…. just need to be careful not to push it TOO hard when cold but then, who does that!

Just sharing mate... not sayin this is for sure what's going on with yours.
