4AT : ATF cooler or Engine Oil Cooler?
This is confusing. when i browse throught japanparts.com i found that the MAzdaspeed oil cooler is only for MT. i wonder why.
What should be a more accurate mod for Auto car? ATF cooler or Engine Oil cooler? How would these mods effect or auto car? ]What brand there is for these 2? |
I would go OEM. I have a AT and have 2 OEM Oil Coolers on my car that the Mazda guys put in when they replaced my Engine.

The 6MT here in the States comes with a passenger side oil cooler. They just use the parts from the US 6MT.

hi there, the website that sells the oil cooler, and its say for MT. dunno wether it means MT extra oil cooler or for MT. should be ok for AT car rite? please check for me, thx.

I ordered the mazdaspeed cooler and crossover lines here in Japan and when Mazda went to install them the AT cooler lines to the raidiator where in the way of the cross over oil lines so they refused to install it. Couple of slight bends in the lines would have solved the problem, but they wouldn't do it... For this reason I'm hoping that the engine goes somtime next summer while it's still under warrenty and then I'll install one myself after I get the new engine and the warrenty expires.
Also for future referance the Mazda Speed oil cooler is a slightly larger oil cooler than the stock MT one and it is sold as an upgrade to the MT cooler only. |
icic. thx for the info. i ordered an engine oil cooler
|
From what I read, you can/should do both.
Does anybody have pics or suggestions on where/how you would do both ( ATF cooler and Engine Oil cooler)??? |
i need a photo of some one installing the ATF cooler. how to connect the lines to the original ATF cooler under the radiator.

u can install atf cooler beside your radiator in front ..n install oil cooler on the allocated side...cant take pics of the hoses n install its not that visible i think
|
Any suggestions or pics of Automatic Transmission Fluid Coolers that mount in the front and NOT where the 2nd oil cooler is suppose to go???

i had installed a MS oil cooler for my 4AT, i am annoyed by the hot gear knob and is it wise to install a fan near the ATF cooler? cause i don't wanna disturb the oem one cause its running on pressure.
|
Fan near the ATF cooler? I think they are air cooled, right?
|
ATf cooler is at the bottom of the radiator, but the fan is not focusing on the atf cooler, its on the aluminium fents, well the bad thing is the ATf cooler doesn't seem getting much help from the aluminium fents. damn thats bad. went through it once again with my mechanic who has a lot of experience with japanese car. and he say nothing else can help unless can get a long oil cooler. damn! no fan!
|
Does anyone know if you can use the greddy oil cooler instead of this mazda one? Or just any other one since I really want to put another oil cooler on.
|
yes u can, but u would have to do the braket and hose yourself, the MS one is plug and use.
|
How was the install for the mazdaspeed oil cooler hard or pretty easy?
|
its was pretty easy just for the cooler... despite the difficulty of taking off the bumper.
