But to be double the temp at first start up after its been sitting all night?

Yeah thats not going to happen.

I'd say somethings a little screwy here, possible bad sensor?

Its not as drastic as it sounds. 14*C is 57.2*F whereas 28*C is 82.4*F. That is a difference of 25*F. I've noted on mine that the trans fluid is always warmer than ambient, even at start up.
