I've been overheating the transmission, mostly on slow and go hill climbs.
05 48RE, 136K on it with ATS valve body, TC and overhaul.
I've recently learned that the cooler has a thermostat, just like the engine radiator, and mine seems to be stuck closed.
I've surmised this based on a digital probe on either side of the top drivers side corner, where I'd heard it would be located.
Apparently this thermostat is not replaceable, and I need to replace the entire cooler.
Anyone have a work around for that?
Should I be annoyed with the transmission shop that didn't think about this contributing to my high temps, and was trying to sell me an auxiliary cooler to alleviate the issue?
Thanks,
Dave
