Default AOD t-bar gets hot

I didn't really take notice of this till a couple days ago when it was 89 outside, i noticed my t-bar was getting really hot. i figured it was just the heat, and black interior. but today its raining and in the 60's and the t-bar is just as hot as the day before.

Over heating transmission? i hope not

Your shifter isnt actually connected to the transmission. The only way it controls the transmission is by a cable. If youre transmission is making enough heat to heat the shifter from a distance, your transmission would be shot by now.

Its doubtful really. Regardless of outside temps, the sun could be heating it up pretty good.
