I start to monitor Tranny temp when tow in the summer now.
Looks like Tranny temp even increases when it is idle, so my suspicion is transmission fluid is heated by coolant, is that true?
Generally, I found my Tran temp doesn't change a lot, stay under 90c, my question is if the fluid temp is maintained by coolant, then what's the point to add a secondary cooler for towing? Is that because coolant heat exchange is still not enough to cool transmission fluid. Then what about in winter, by adding secondary cooler is that possible the fluid will be too cold to properly work?
