a lot of the time heating up of the transmission is being in wrong gear. Never let a car get in to 6th gear overdrive, will heat up the transmission. I always tow in 3/4 depending on how many gears in the autobox. So if it was a 6 speed then I would be running in 4th. Dont let it run in Overdrive. 5/6. Yes spunks the fuel but rather it do that than burn out the transmission.
Do a youtube search on this. The ozzies have a few vids on this. They proved it by show temperatures at both 4 and 6th
