Tahoe Tranny Temp
I have this '25 RST with 10K miles. We just came back from a trip to The Great Rocky Mountains in TN and NC back to Florida. The first day driving up the mountains the transmission fluid ran about 215 Degrees, which I thought was OK giving the circumstances . However the next day going up the mountains, I stopped to get some food and left it running since family was still in the car and AC on for like 10 mins. When I came back, I noticed the transmission was at 235 degrees. So I drove to the nearest area and parked it to cool down while we walked around. I called two local Chevy dealerships and spoke to the service advisors and both told me while that's hot, as long as it goes down below 220 it should be fine considering where you are driving. As normal is under 220 up to 230 if towing. Plus as long as no warning lights or msgs, not to worry as they have many sensors that if anything out of the ordinary it will send a msg. So when we drove back to Florida, the whole way it varied between 205 and 220 at about 85 mph for the whole 10 hour trip home. What do you all think, am I OK or should this not be happening. I was worried I get stranded so far away with the family but thankfully we made it. Thank you all for any knowledgeable feedback.
