My car was the one that Gm found the overfilled trans on. We flushed the system 2 times and made sure the fluid was at correct level. I took the car to summit point after and it ran fine it was around 80 degrees. I was just at Pittrace with my Viper and my wife drove up the zl1 A10 and i took it out for a few laps 3 times. Second time i went out i got 5 laps in then heard a very loud chime like the door chime. Screen said Transmission Overheated Idle Car, or something of that nature. Did a cool down lap and brought the car in. It was about 88 Degrees out and I can drive the car at its limit pretty easily. Im pretty disappointed that its over heating at 5 laps in at 88 degrees. Not sure what to do at this point as the A10 is a wonderful transmission. This problem isnt gonna happen on the street or in cooler weather on track. I think 85 degrees plus it starts becoming an issue if your running really hard, im guessing at 90-100 anyone could overheat it. Coolant temp was really good oil temp are really high as well.
