The bottom line is there is a restricted flow of ATF somewhere which is making the system not only overheat, but seep out of low pressure areas. It could be your cooler lines or the transmission radiator. It could also be due to old age, it happens (btw, you never did tell us the year or mileage on your rover). It could also be the valve block on the transmission. In either case, you may be looking at a new/rebuild of your transmission, unless you can find where blockage is occurring. You might even consider your torque converter. You are looking at an expensive repair. Wish you the best and hope it works out.
