    Transmission over temp warning.

    The past two days i would drive to work park the jeep work then go home and have to run a earn about a hour later and i would get the transmission over temp warning light. So i took it it the tranny shop and they said that it was the cylinoide pack with the temp sensor and they wanted to do a value adjustment as well. All in all about $1200. Just wandering if any of you had this problem or ideas.

    I believe the solenoid pack is relatively easy to replace..... just have to drop the pan to access it. Probably worth seeing how much one costs and do it yourself.

    Im going to check on it today. What about the value adjustment do you think it needs to be done at 72,000 miles?

    $400 is a lot cheaper than $1200!! Is that dealer price or an online mopar parts supplier?

    You mean a valve adjustment? That's not something I'd worry about with 70k. Well lets put it this way, I never planning on bringing mine into a shop for "preventative valve adjustment".

    It's around $400 from a online store. The $1200 would be with the value adjustment they wanted about $600 to $700 to do the pack about three hours of labor. I don't think I'm going to do a value adjustment yet. I'll probably do it my self after i have the dealer diagnose what is wrong with to see if they come up with the same thing.

    The reason I asked about the AEV module is because when we installed the 4 inch lift on my buddy's WK he was getting the trans over heat light during the install of the module. It was weird cause his jeep hadn't moved for almost a month if not more when we installed the lift cause we painted everything. And the jeep wasn't even running.
