I think the transmission temp feature is only on automatic equipped cars. Don't think the 6 spd manuals have it.

Yes, it has a sensor, but only tells you on the DIC when the tranny temp is too high. AFAIK the Z06 doesn't have a gauge on the DIC that will tell you the current temp like it does for coolant and oil temps.

180-210 in normal driving is fine.
