Do I need an oil cooler for automatic transmission for towing trailers? "Hey Guys, Im not sure if need an oil cooler for automatic transmission .. in a van 3.2ltr Turbo Diesel powered .. I'll be towing a trailer is a total weight of 750 kg and the load will never be more than 300 kg .. Is it true that the gearbox can suffer serious damage if it overheats too?
ideas on what I would do would be great ..
Thank you
certainly the heat .. Yes .... is the deadliest
Yes the # 1 cause of self unprocessed is overheating.
You have a stock trans cooler built into your rad. But for towing, driving hard, shopping, etc., this is not enough to keep the trans cool enough.
A supplement on the fountain kit is only $ 35-50. Money well spent, in my opinion. Kit comes with everything to install cooler with.
On my camaro I race, I run extra 2 trans coolers. I also have a temperature gauge trans. With the cooler rad my transmission was at 215 * F (200 * F is the max you ever want to go to the cross)
Adding a cooler and temp fuild dropped to 198 * F, even alittle too hot, so I added another and then ran temp 180 * F.
yes, like what the overheated Trans rune it.You should have a cooler anyway Trans Look to see if you have a small radiator in front of the radiator. If not installed, you will not have 1 sow trans.Also wailing if your lot, I suggest a power controller, you can switch the program application form traction in the economy by pushing a button.
