drive bearing and hot running controller/regulator Explanation: "running hot" is a standard engineering term applied to a bearing. It describes exactly what happens to a bearing when a part starts to wear and excessive friction develops. If the bearing is not then quickly replaced, it will fail, with possible catastrophic results for the machine. I used to work in manufacturing industry. |

1 hr confidence:
drive bearing and warm-up controller Explanation: Getriebelager definitely is drive bearing (see answer above). The context is automotive so Warmlaufregler refers to the warm-up phase. Voila, so you come up with the above. Hot-running is not the issue here since in German that's strictly "heisslaufen". Drive bearing always get WARM, the no-no comes when they are running HOT. mechanical engineering background |

5 hrs confidence:
transmission (or gearbox bearings) and warm-up control device Explanation: The "Getriebe" is the transmission or gearbox. I would call it a drive. "Warmlaufen" is definitely "to warm up." The warm up is usually controlled by a warm-up control valve. Here the valve is not mentioned, but it is probably included in the total device.
