    Hi All,

    I'm using an XTool D7W to monitor my AT oil temperature to check the fill level. I see 2 different data points on the tool (see picture). They aren't too far apart and move together so I don't think it will matter much, but is there 2 different temperature sensors in the transmission pan? If so, where are they located and would one be better than the other for the fluid level check?

    Thanks,

    Temp 1 is the pan and Temp 2 is the torque converter

    Check build thread!
    I used the pan when filling mine- haven't had issues.
