The fluid cooler is located at the bottom right hand corner of the engine. The cooler is cooled by engine coolant which
flows in a water jacket around cores within the cooler body. Transmission fluid enters the cooler and flows through
the cores where it is cooled by the engine coolant. The fluid leaves the cooler and is passed back to the transmission.
The transmission fluid is pumped through the cooler by the transmission fluid pump.
The fluid cooler has a thermostatic valve which is opened by transmission fluid temperature. The thermostatic valve
is opened at a transmission fluid temperature of 80
°
C (176
°
F) and allows engine coolant to flow through the fluid
cooler.
