Hey guys! Are any of you using a scangauge 3, ultragauge, or similar? I would like to keep an eye on a numerical value for transmission temps. I know this is possible in previous gens but have not seen any info on the 6th gen. The scangauge website is not great at listing application compatibility.

I also have been looking for a good scan gauge. My previous experience has been using an OBD2 Bluetooth and have tried a few apps.
Only to be disappointed as I could never find a transmission temperature and they were paid subscription so I quickly disengaged and canceled.
I have asked this before in a previous post if anyone is using an OBD2 Bluetooth Scanner with app to collectively get transmission temperatures.
Some of them are very expensive and not really worth it because they are just cheap plastic Global Market units. And the apps aren't guaranteed to pull the right data nor is the OBD2 connector guaranteed to get into your system properly.
Hope this all makes sense but I pretty much gave up and resorted to a thermal infrared temperature gun. Those are not the most accurate but they will get you really close.
