No, the mud made its way past the undershield (and the oil filter/pan access hatch was lost) while driving on muddy, unmaintained roads.

My 2019 2.5L is much colder (like under 100) when they cold temp indicator turns off. I've only checked in ambient temps of about 60°F or colder so maybe hot ambient temp would get the ATF closer to 122°F

Oh, yeah my wording was misleading. I checked the temp so that the dipstick was accurate. I wish it the car had a a ATF and engine oil level sensors.

Yeah, the reviews on ELM327 style devices indicate Forscan works with some but not others which is why I decided to order the Vgate vLinker they have listed on their website as it wasn't to expensive and I just wanted it to work.

Forscan is still called Forscan (lite for the phone version) but I don't think it's available on the Google app store. You can download it on their website though, at least on androids. I installed it a couple weeks ago and it works with Vgate vLinker device. Transmission fluid temp is...

I drove through a fair amount of mud over the past month, some of it required speed to make it through, and the hatch in the shielding for the oil pan/filter came off. But yet, I'm not exactly sure how it made it past the shield unless it was all through the missing hatch. I was surprised at...

Thanks for the reply. I have 61,000 miles so I'm just outside the warranty if I'm not mistaken (current sales have a 5 year/60,000 mile warranty and I believe that's what it was in 2019).

Is the picture showing up now? I replaced it with one that has better labels and it may have taken a minute for the site to update. I used a an INA from RockAuto ($40). RockAuto lists the part number as FT01291 but I forgot to check the numbers on the tensioner before installing it.

Hi, I noticed this leak yesterday after removing the splash guard/under shield. Can anyone identify it, and does anyone have any other info regarding severity, course of action, etc? I think the part it's on is the transmission but I'm not sure. And yes, I know that's a lot of mud. I have...

What did you end up finding out about this? Just found the same leak on 2019.

Replaced the belts and tensioner today on my 2019 AWD non-turbo and wanted to add this these notes: 1. The top bolt/nut on the tensioner was pretty tight and easily rounded with a 12 point box end wrench. I would definitely recommend only using a 6 point wrench or socket (which is always good...
