Transmission Fluid Cooler

NOTICE: Whenever a transmission has been disassembled to install new parts, the transmission fluid cooler lines must be cleaned and backflushed. Refer to Transmission Fluid Cooler Tubes Backflushing and Cleaning. A new transmission fluid cooler must be installed. Transmission Fluid Cooler Tubes Backflushing and Cleaning

NOTE: Cleaning and backflushing the transmission fluid cooling system along with following all the normal cleaning and inspection procedures during disassembly and reassembly will keep contamination from re-entering the transmission and causing a repeat repair.

When internal wear or damage has occurred in the transmission, metal particles, clutch plate material or band material may have been carried into the torque converter and transmission fluid cooler. These contaminants are a major cause of recurring transmission troubles and must be removed from the system before the transmission is put back into use. For new transmission fluid cooler which is part of the A/C condenser and can not be serviced separately, refer to Climate Control Service and Repair. For transmission fluid cooler tube installation, refer to Transaxle/Transmission Cooling Transmission Fluid Cooler Tubes.
