Wow, my el cheapo $28 Etekeity Infrared thermometer Worked! (2014 Tundra 5.7L Max Crew 4X4) Started off at 60 degrees cold, started engine and ran through gears, she hit 85 in about 5 minutes, went up and went through gears again, and the top/right of the drain pan (where AMD showed) was at 106 in 9 minutes. So I don't need a $300+ OBD2 reader to get tran temp! (Be careful under the vehicles, I was seeing 350 degrees on parts of the tailpipe...ouch) God Bless!!

Such a helpful channel! I have two trannies that need service...my 2014 Tundra MaxCrew 5.7L (I have temps 104-113). And my daughters 2012 Sienna XLE AWD. (No idea on temps...same?)

@TheCarCareNut Yes, I have an old grenade pin for that cooler bypass!! If I use the infrared temp gun, do I need someone in the vehicle shifting between gears while it's running or do I just let her run and check the temps then pop off the drain plug when up to 104?

@TheCarCareNut Thanks! I'm glad that worked, the $200 ODB2 scanner I just got from Amazon (that claims to show tranny temp) is a piece of crap so I returned it....laser temp gun it is!!!

@starzztop Do you have a Tundra? Reviews on Amazon says doesn’t show temps for Toyota or Lexus 😩
