C43 Gearbox Temps

Hi Guys,

I just picked up my C43 on Monday and I have noticed that the transmission temperature takes a long time to reach normal temps. Mind you that it has been pretty cold in the last 3 days but even driving the car for 25-30 minutes it only goes to 40C (still in blue).

Is this normal? I'm not sure if the -15C temps got something to do with it but seems odd. Here is a pic that I took after a 25 minute city drive.

Thanks

I've had my C43 here in Houston for 2 weeks with temps getting above 80F and I have noticed it taking 10+ mins to get out of the blue.

Definitely surprised me.

Yes, I am in Toronto and it has been cold for days now. My CLA45 AMG sure didn't take this long to warm up.

Same for me. Totally normal specially if you are driving normally. If you switch to sports+ mode and take it slow, but go up to 3k rpm, it will start to increase quicker. After 50C it will become white.
