According to my ultra-gauge, I was getting a trans temp of 199F and an engine temp of 210F. This was in about 84F weather doing 75 mph on the highway with the AC on. I do not tow and do not expect to.
From my research, I'm seeing the trans should be about 100 degrees higher than ambient outdoor temperatures and I should try to keep it under 210F. I'm a little concerned I might be running into some higher trans temps when summer arrives.
Should I be looking at getting a cooler? I know it can't hurt, but I suppose I would like some input on how serious of an issue it is.
