Transmission Cooler: Service and Repair
Backflushing and Cleaning
1. When internal wear or damage has occurred in the transmission, metal particles, clutch plate material or band material may have been carried into
the torque converter and OTA fluid cooler. These contaminants are a major cause of recurring transmission concerns and must be removed from
the system before the system is put back into service. The OTA fluid cooler is not serviceable with existing equipment due to the thermostatic
bypass valve.
