ZF automatic transmission temperature

Does anyone know the normal operating temperatures for the ZF automatic transmission? Is 215f too hot?

I would say 215 is on the higher temperature of what you would expect. Is your car modded for power?

Just a tune. I was reaching 215f in a Taco Bell drive through but noticed the temps starts to drop back down as I started moving again.
EDIT: I do believe I had the xhp transmission flash at the time. I have since removed it, I'll do another log and check temps

Nothing that worrying IMO. I've hit 240 and didn't die.

If you run the sport cooling mode you'll see cooler temps all around. Moving air is key to stable temps. Parked there isn't enough air moving to get a reliable temp reading.

That's reassuring. I've contacted ZF directly to get a real answer. I'll let you guys know what they say
