Default How hot???
After cruising for a bit I notice that my emergency brake handle will get pretty warm....I assume from the heat of my tranny. Is this a normal thing??? Or is my transmission running too hot??

Totally normal.

My old A4 LT1 with the Ttops off and the air off, used to be able to cook the occupants.
