Thanks guys, I was going to start with the engine temperature sensor, but might as well do them both to save a trip to toyota.

Is the transmission temperature sensor accessible from the out of the transmission?
Got a pic of it's location?
Cheers

The temp sensor is located on top of the tranny, and is accessible with the battery and intake box removed.
