    I'm considering bypassing the radiator (capping it off) and running the Mishimoto heavy duty universal transmission fluid cooler with an electric fan on a switch.

    Could do an inline filter but i like to have my trans serviced about every 30-35k anyway so i'm not certain i'd enjoy the annoyance of a second filter.

    Link to trans cooler: http://m.autoanything.com/drivetrain-differentials/mishimoto-transmission-oil-coolers

    My truck DOES NOT have the factory towing package. But i have a tow package hitch and installed a 4pin wiring harness. My trans fluid temp ranges from 160-200 without a trailer to 190-235 with a trailer. I've never pulled more than 3500lbs with this truck but the trans fluid temp always seems too high.

    But i also live in a climate where it can be -20 in the winter and 100 in the summer. So i don't want to over do my cooling capacity in the winter months.

    Also works with the OBD Fusion app as well. There is a thread on here that has a custom PID allowing you to get Transmission temps or you can purchase the Toyota PID's in the app for an additional $10. Works as a great tool when doing a fluid change.

    Android users out there - $12 Veepeak bluetooth OBD, with the OBD Fusion app and their Toyota Enhanced Diagnostics add-on will pull transmission temps no fuss required.

    Hey guys. I'm having trouble getting my Ultragauge to display my trans temp at all. I tried using the codes listed in here, but it still shows error. What am i doing wrong?

    I used what you posted last page for the 12-15 pan temp. I tried them too see if it would work for my 11. I guess I'll try the 08 FJ ones.

    Mine came programmed to read only 1 temp. It was reading the torque converter temp only when I received it.
