Do the 16's have an differential temp sensor?

[valentinoamoro]

My 15 GT PP doesnt have anyway to view the diff temp that I am aware of. Wanted to know if thats a 16 feature thats connected to the ECU/warning systems? It came up in a thread about laptimes (the person said his 16 had it and alerted about diff overheating)

I need to know this urgently as I will sell my 15 and trade it in if the newer one has a diff sensor. Between that and the updated cupholders, I am going crazy. I no longer have the latest and greatest and its killing me.

Easy to add and much cheaper than buying a new car.

The differential sensor and the updated cup holders are invisible on the '16's. They are there but you just can't see them. Trade in that '15 pile and hurry!!!

PP has diff temp sensor but I don't think you can see the temp. It will however reduce power once the diff gets too hot.

No shit. I'm overheating my diff everyday in my commute.

Silly, 2015s don't have differentials so they don't need the sensor.

2015's are front wheel drive. Look under the front end.

Hard to say for sure....I don't have the sensor

I have a 16 with a temp sensor on the transfer case, but not one on the diff. I also special ordered it with the 2015 cup holders. I may be in the minority, but I like the old style cup holders better than the new 2016 style.

Interesting. Something is seriously wrong if your commute is overheating your differential. Stating the obvious, I know

Cup holders are different? Does 2015 not have the automatic cup tensioners from the factory?

And based on owners manuals, 2015 says nothing about rear axle temp, but 2016 states it has an over temp warming if it gets too hot, which leads me to believe 2015s don't have it. I just figured they all had it.
