Esskayy Member 5 Member For: 12y 7m 15d Posted 23/11/12 12:22 PM Share Posted 23/11/12 12:22 PM ive posted a few times on this site, and ive been told to use the search, so im sorry if this has been asked. But I have an 06 xr6t bf, at work I had a ba xr6 come in and had to change the radiator, because the trans cooler had corroded and the trans fluid was going into the coolant. Just wondering if this is a common issue and should I change the radiator? or is it a rare occurance? dont really want a worked trans burning out from no oil.
