Yes it does it is part of the onboard diagnostics where the tire inflation adn oil life meter is. I am wondering what is concidered high for the tranny temp?

Search this forum as ZX/Dave posted a max tranny temp and recommended getting a cooler if you're getting close to it. I think it was around 230F.

I gotta add something too. Read a Dextron VI info blurb online. They said to not mix fluid (like with Dextron III) as this would void warranties and trash the tranny. Why, I don't know. And that stuff's expensive too. Just FYI for everyone.
