Come on guys , grab a brain that's my point, colour aside, when the trans cooler bypass's, the first symptoms aren't over heating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said you need to dump the oil and check for water too so hopefully they will do that What other checks need to be done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get a nipple from a N/A BF and leave the cooler off then later fit an sandwich plate with oil/air cooler. I take the stock engine oil coolers off for the concern of the issue you had. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
