Great point, I didn't think of trans temp. That could be it. One of the gauges I installed is monitoring trans temp, so I'll keep an eye on it and see if I notice any patterns.

It seems like in normal driving the transmission oil temp eventually stabilizes at around 50 degrees over outside temp, but it takes quite a while to get there.
