Believe it or not, this car does not have a traditional "transmission fluid passes through a heat exchanger in the radiator" system, there's a tiny sandwich cooler (which is just as much of a heater) bolted to the inside of the transmission tunnel.Do you have an engine oil cooler? if not, install. It will make the work of the coolant radiator easier and the coolant radiator will cool off AT better.
But, the transmission cooler has to be installed too.
So I'll be adding an external ATF cooler in lieu of engine oil air-to-air cooler.
I'm working on getting a device which can monitor not only my water temp, but my oil and transmission temps. I will use those to gauge necessity of an external engine oil cooler, as well as see if I'm keeping trans temps and perhaps even overcooling.
