    I've noticed the mine gets hot too but I have the kilby skid plates trapping the heat. We do have an AT oil temp light on the VX that should come on if you're tranny is overheating.

    IMO a good service never hurts.

    I wouldn't put much faith in that sensor. Hence the fact I lost a tranny. I need to update my scangageII to the most recent version so I can add monitor points. I would be curious to see regular temps vs "high" temps.
