pretty much mainly for towing, as the Auto does more work.

yes we realise this -I wasn't talking about "creating" the heat in the Auto Transmission - but dissipating the said heat in the Auto Transmission


however, after re-reading this whole thread, I have realised that we were talking about 2 separate issues that were in this same tread.

your question

There are heaps of kits you can buy.... this is a larger one and probably overkill. http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/AN10-Univ...item4d238dc505
He was claiming that living in the hot conditions of the top end he saw temps of 120 regularly but now it sits at 95... I have seen others mention this and I did see one car at the wreckers with this set up (no it was not a transmission cooler)...
Not sure if there are issues with oil working at correct temps or what?
about fitting an aftermarket external additional cooling radiator for the oil.

was in fact answered by Nissannewby - the coolant runs through the oil filter housing - thus taking heat from the oil, transferring it to the coolant, and then on through the rest of the cooling system ie: thermostat, water pump and radiator.
