DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION

COMPONENT LOCATION

Automatic Transmission Cooling

  1. Engine cooling radiator
  2. Engine coolant inlet
  3. Supply pipe - from transmission
  4. Return pipe - to transmission
  5. Engine coolant outlet
  6. Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) cooler

OVERVIEW

The Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) cooler is a separate cooling unit located behind the engine cooling radiator.

The unit is attached to the rear of the cooling fan shroud. The transmission is connected to the ATF cooler through flexible hoses and metal pipes.

The transmission is connected to the ATF cooler through flexible hoses and metal pipes.

DESCRIPTION

There are 2 hose and pipe assemblies connecting the Automatic Tansmission Fluid (ATF) cooler to the automatic transmission. The 2 engine coolant hose connections are incorporated into the top of the ATF cooler for the supply and return of coolant from the engine cooling system.

ATF is supplied from the transmission ATF pump into the ATF cooler. After passing through the ATF cooler, the ATF passes out of the ATF cooler and is returned to the transmission fluid pan.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID COOLER

Automatic Transmission Cooling

  1. Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) cooler
  2. Engine coolant outlet
  3. Transmission fluid pipe inlet connection
  4. Engine coolant inlet
  5. Transmission fluid pipe outlet connection
  6. Mounting bracket

The Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF) cooler is attached to a mounting bracket and is secured to the left side of the front subframe with 2 bolts. The ATF cooler has 2 lugs which locate in corresponding lugs on the mounting bracket and secured with a screw. The ATF cooler is an aluminum housing comprising louvred fins and plates. The plates allow a cross-flow of ATF and engine coolant through the ATF cooler. The plates are immersed in engine coolant from the cold side of the radiator. This provides cooling of the ATF by the temperature differential between the ATF and the engine coolant.

The ATF cooler receives engine coolant from the low temperature zone at the left side of the radiator. The engine coolant flow through this section of the radiator is restricted by the ATF cooler. Therefore the engine coolant has a slower flow rate across the cooling tubes of this section of the radiator. This cools the engine coolant more than the lower part of the radiator and consequently provides increased cooling of the ATF. The engine coolant then passes from the ATF cooler to the thermostat housing.

The 2 quick release connectors on the cooler provide for the attachment of the ATF pipes to and from the automatic transmission.
