Transmission not engine

Tottot. Nope no silver back foam. I suppose the heats not a problem unless there’s something wrong with the engine. I was just wondering whether excessive heat in that area is a sign of an engine problem.

So James would different gear oil reduce the heat?

ive just taken my 1993 defender 110 tdi on motorway / long distance trip for the first time since I’ve had it. I’ve taken the cubby box out to give more space and I noticed that the plate between the seat boxes on the floor got really really hot . Is that expected?
