Transaxle Cooling: Overview

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

These vehicles are equipped with an external fluid cooler. The cooler is mounted between the engine radiator and the A/C condenser. In operation, transmission fluid travels from the transaxle to the fluid cooler then back to the transaxle. The fluid cooler transfers heat from the transmission fluid to the outside air.
