I'm so over this damn car already. I've had this obscure problem with it since 2017 and there's no known solution I've seen, so here goes one more attempt.
Whenever the Jeep is driven any distance for about an hour, the transmission overheat warning comes on, the Jeep enters into the "limp" mode throttling it back to 30/40 mph and it makes a high pitched whine. I know what all of it means, so I don't need a lto of explanations, and I do need to clarify THE CAR IS NOT OVERHEATING, since it seems most subjects regarding this always default to the car overheating.
I installed an additional supplemental radiator for the transmission line, which is connected in front of the standard radiator. I replaced the one and only valve which the parts catalog said would cause this overheat warning. I've had the transmission serviced, flushed, and refilled. But this problem always comes back in warmer weather, guaranteed.
I'm ready to scrap this thing if I didn't desperately need it!
Any outside-the-box ideas for this? Because I tried every obscure standard mechanical fix in the books and it hasn't worked.
