  • Transmission Cooler

    I was thinking about getting an aftermarket trans cooler. becuase whenever my trans gets really hot after driving around for a while it starts to slip.. and i was wondering if i got a better trans cooler if that would help. Whats the stock cooler specs? and would this one below work?

    If your trany is slipping, they most likely it will just get worse. Even if the tranny cooler worked, it would be a bandaid.

      yea i know.. just until i can get my tranny fixed.. even tho i know theres many f-bodies that have had this same problem.. wish there was a recall on it or something.. but then again for that to happen 1000 people would have to have been in a car accident

          Is it a P1870? You might be interpreting no lockup as a slip condition (your PCM does as well), when it's a real easy fix - $300 at the tranny shop, a sonnax valve and sleeve later, and you'll be all set to go.
