Scanner with live data for transmission service

Any recommendations for scanner to read trans fluid temp?

I have to do Transmission service on the Wife's ML. Im looking for "reasonably priced". I know it can be done with a thermal temp gun. I used a digital thermometer on her GLK before the ML with no issues. I just always wondered how accurate that actually was? I don't mind spending a little more if I get features I could possibly need down the road, now that doesn't mean I'm planning on getting a Star scanner. One I was looking at had DPF features I thought could come in handy down the road, manual regens and I believe it would give you % of saturation or flow on the DPF filter.

I wouldn't get too fussy about trans temps.

Maybe contact this guy and see what he is using.

The iCarSoft MB II will read tranny temp. I'm guessing the Foxwell unit will as well.
