Seems a bit of a strange one to me. Under normal conditions unless you are towing a house around behind you, the transmission fluid won't get anywhere near to engine temp. To default it to that minima seems ridiculous to me. But cleverer people than me at Land Rover, so you have to take it there is method in their madness. I would have thought that setup would be foreseen as a problem by a blind mouse, being chased by a deaf and dumb cat, with no ears, no tail and only three legs, called Lucky. Unless the designer was seriously demented. Or could the cheapest manufacturing option come into play here?
