CVT temp

[jequiz]

So when I drive in sports mode, the trans temp reaches all the way above 100c (212f) and sometimes even 107c (224f). Does anyone share a similar experience?

i would get an an external transmission cooler if you are getting temps that high. 220 pretty much the max temperature you want to see. not good for longevity.

Those seem about normal operating temps. Should compare it to temps when in the normal driving mode. If you are concerned, definitely look into getting a transmission cooler.

Yeah, its normal. Expect it to get warmer if you're pushing the car harder and in sports mode. You can search on the forum and find similar posts talking about the same thing with similar numbers. Also, from your profile it looks like you live in Texas, so obviously in a warmer climate things would be warmer under the hood too. As I said, if its still a concern to you, then get a transmission cooler.
