Transaxle Cooling: Notes

The transmission fluid cooling system consists of the following:

• Oil-To-Air (OTA) transmission fluid combo cooler
• Transmission fluid cooler tube assembly
• Transmission fluid cooler inlet tube
• Transmission fluid cooler outlet tube

This vehicle is equipped with an external transmission fluid cooler. The transmission fluid cooler is attached to the front of the A/C condenser and can be serviced separately. Transmission fluid travels from the transaxle through the upper transmission fluid cooler tube, into the transmission fluid cooler, through the transmission fluid cooler, out of the transmission fluid cooler, through the lower transmission fluid cooler tube and back into the transaxle. The transmission fluid cooler transfers heat from the transmission fluid to the outside air.
