The ATX in our cars is known for overheating easily. I was stuck in traffic on my way home this evening in hot weather and it had me worried. At this point, if the tranny guy doesn't find anything wrong with your car, I would suggest having a flush done if the fluid isn't too old. How many miles since the last ATX service, and how many miles overall?



Its been about 20k since the flush last summer. And car about to hit 100k overall.
I took it to a place for a 'package special' and have no clue if they did the flush or not last summer. Plugs changed then too...wires original.

If seems to really happen at 60 mph+.
Did it again for 45 minutes of drive then nothing for next 45 minutes.
