While in stop and go traffic in a hilly area I got the clutch temperature warning. I'm curious if anyone knows of a way to report this temperature with jscan or some other scanner
Clutch only heats up when slipping. Slip the clutch as little as possible, just a little when starting from a dead stop and always fully engaged when rolling!
I believe it's an inferred value based on speed and rpm, not sure that it's a real number. People have had false errors and 'service transmission' warnings with the current software.
This was stop and go on a mountain side. Move 10ft from a stop up a hill. Stop move 10ft from a stop up a hill. Stop. You never get the fully engaged. I'm sure it was sliping a little but no more so than any car in a similar situation.
