I have done a search, but I can't seem to find what the part is called or where to purchase.

I'm looking for an AT fluid cooler that will fit into the right hole opposite the oil cooler.

Thanks!

I'm wondering if the engine oil too hot or the AT oil too hot, coz i got overheat a lot in the track...should i put 1 more engine oil cooler or AT oil cooler?....

1 more oil cooler wouldn't hurt - your wallet maybe...but not the engine

also, Philip, what oil are you using? what's the weight?

Mazmart has oil coolers if you want to use one of them.

Thanks for the reply. I realize that the car has an AT cooler. I have heard that the biggest killer of auto trans is heat, and countless times people have posted information on adding an additional AT cooler to the passenger side "opening" in the bumper.

My question, to be more specific, is where does one get this "additional" cooler. Is it the same one as the oil cooler, just hooked up to different lines?

I'm assuming that turbo owners have worried about their transmissions heating up. Don't they purchase an additional cooler, or have I been reading this wrong the whole time?

Thanks!

I removed my extra trans cooler when I installed the BHR radiator.

BhR AT radiator comes with tranny cooler, do you guys think add another one will be any good, 2 tranny cooler?

With going to the BHR radiator from a add in tranny cooler, an extra cool i do not feel will add any extra cooling "power"

From the data i collected the OEM + aftermarket tranny cooler provide the same temps as the BHR radiator.
