Default transmission aw4

i got my jeep back from the shop a couple days ago, and they fixed what it was in there for. now i was driving around today, and i saw smoke, and the smell of transmission fluid, pulled over and stopped. come to find out that my transmission was draining its self through the drain plug. limped it to a local garage and they gave me a new plug and filled it up, but now it revs high 2.5/3+ before shifting. normally i can cruse around 1.5/2. im wondering if it sounds like a shot solenoid or something that i can fix. the shop that is was at is very high priced and i don't want to bring it back if i don't have to.

i had a bottle of transtune it in, but that flushed out. i plan on getting a cooler, and a temp gauge.
