Never heard of a DCT overheating in regular stop and traffic before

Also check the front passenger side cooler intake for debris (down low below the headlight). A plastic bag stuck in there will block airflow though the trans cooler.

I would keep an eye on it. Might just be a fluke with a sensor getting some bad readings.

Maybe someone else can chime in here, but looking at the trans temps with a scantool or whatever would be smart.

Look for leaks in tranny as of you lost fluid it overheats note easily
