Hello all, I have a 14 RAM 2500 with a built-in transmission by Redline performance diesel, the trans thermostat delete, running a RaceME Ultra with tuning from DRD.
The trans and thermostat delete has been in the truck since 2020 and has about 60k miles on it.
Recently, I noticed my trans temperature is higher than it used to be.
I started noticing this last summer.
The other day, I was sitting in a parking lot eating for 15-20 min and noticed the trans temp peaked at 204 degrees just sitting there.
I have tried park and sitting in neutral to see if that made a difference, and they seem to be the same.
I also added some fans to the factory trans cooler, thinking my electronic fan clutch could go out, but that doesn't seem to be the case.
I have a 180 thermostat in the engine, and the coolant temp is usually 183. Any ideas on what could be making the trans heat up while not moving?
While driving, it also seems to run warmer than it did a year or two ago.
I remember it would rarely get over 140-150; now, it's generally around 167 when I've been driving for a while, and it stays there.
