Has anyone installed an oil cooler for their 3.0 Di Auto transmission?
How difficult was the job?

Don't they already run one through the radiator?

I was of the belief that was later series. I have the 2002 GU3.
I could be mistaken though so I will go have a closer look.

I will be easy to tell. If you see two steel pipes going into the bottom of the radiator. You have a cooler.

The ZD30 already has a good sized alloy trans fluid cooler. It's roughly twice the size of the factory TB45E trans cooler.

A good addition is a trans fluid temp gauge if you're towing.. or using it a bit harshly.

Thanks I can see the pipes so I will stop worrying about not having one.
