I plan on getting a hitch installed on my CX-5 so that I can rent boats and campers from MWR, and I was curious if the CX-5 AWD came with a Transmission oil cooler. It's rated for 2,000lb, which should be more than enough for anything I would rent, but having a tranny cooler would help me sleep better.
 
Check with Mazda to see if they offer a transmission cooler as an add-on accessory. Many times, if the OEM offers a hitch for a vehicle they also offer a transmission cooler. In fact, the instructions for the hitch on our Acura state that the hitch should be installed with both the transmission cooler and power steering cooler (sold separately of course). Honda does not offer an auxilliary transmission cooler for the CR-V, so it really depends on the OEM and the particular vehicle.
 
A trans cooler is a great idea anyways.
AFter the stock in radiator cooler, run it through the aftermarket one, and back to the trans.
$50-75 or so.
