I saw 215* on my display this weekend while out wheeling. I have read other threads where that is not abnormal. But like you, I always thought that cooler fluid was better for the transmission.

mine seems to always be 198 or 199. i did get to 205 driving thru the mountains and downshifting alot on the uphills. there was a thread about this a long while back and i think they said thats right in line with these trans's..... i know some have upgraded the coolers, but i dont think its that big an issue. im more worried about the rough shifting in 1st and 2nd when in heavy traffic.
