What could cause my trans temp to jump up 20-30 degs from the normal temp? I've checked and cleaned radiator but haven't had a chance to check fluid yet. The only thing I've changed is the smarty tune I'm running and now my temps are up.

 

Did you go back to your original setting before you changed it and see if the problem still persists?

 

I updated my smarty s06 to pod so I can't go back.

 

Well then, I don't know anything about the smarty or the pod, so perhaps someone else will chime in that has some knowledge about this tuner and you can get a fix.

 

FastTaco, I think MeanDoggy meant remove the smarty program and go back to the stock Dodge program. Run it in the stock configuration and see what your transmissions temps are. That should hopefully tell you if it is the Smarty or something else.

I run a Smarty Jr. and have never had an issue with the transmission temp going up.

Good luck.

 

Drive it with a stock tune are you crazy? Ok, I'll give it a try. haha Thanks EDR
