Without having an automatic transmission temperature gauge kit, most users will continue to drive without changing their driving style until the automatic transmission overheats completely and potentially stops altogether. If nothing works and you reach 130° C (265° F), you need to start looking for a place to pull over, put the vehicle in Park, leave the engine running and allow the transmission to circulate the fluid and cool itself down. If the transmission’s temperature doesn’t return to ‘Normal’ or continues to climb during the extra strain, you have the ability to adjust your driving style to give the transmission a chance at recovering.
If nothing works and you reach 130° C (265° F) you need to start looking for a place to pull over… Why Monitor Your Automatic Transmission Temperature? When you put extra strain on your transmission with an automatic transmission temperature gauge kit fitted, you will be able to see how your transmission is handling that extra strain and how long it takes to return to ‘Normal’ afterwards. Most importantly, with a transmission temperature monitor you will be able to understand what is ‘Normal’ for your transmission during your normal day to day driving. This is why we highly recommend that ALL vehicles fit one of our Transmission Temperature Gauges to give you real time feedback on your driving style’s strain on the automatic transmission. But without having some sort of transmission temp gauge or monitoring system, how do you know if you are making your situation better or worse? Is your transmission actually overheating? Is the problem coming from somewhere else? While all of these reasons can be addressed, some of them are easier said than done.
